I have always wanted to do a USO show for the Troops. What a Dream!  I was contacted by another recording artist, to ask if I would like to perform in Mississippi in Dec 2011 for a group of soldiers that will deploy to Iraq in January 2012.

OF course I said yes!  This will be my First USO type show, and am very extied to be a part of this!!

This is the info so far,

You know, Thursday, july 8th, I sang to a deployed soldier in Afghanistan. its so wonderful to actually be able to SEE a smile on someones face, but yet you are on the phone. The tone of there response has changed and they feel as though someone actually cares what is happening with them..  Please everyone that gets the chance, THANK any one in the Military, for all they gave up and still give up to protect this great country we live in!
