I had to pick up the new Lt. Dan Band movie when I spotted it in the store yesterday. I hadn't seen it before, didn't have a clue what it covered but knowing what Gary Sinise does in support of the USO was cause enough for me. For those that don't know Gary Sinise and group of down home musicians got together and what started as a regular jam session evolved into a very committed support of the troops morale in the form of the Lt Dan Band.
In the movie, which is a bit of a biography about the band and what it represents and their support, history in the military, Lt Dan Band and Gary Sinise, there is a very special song. Gina Gonzalez, one of the vocalists, wrote a piece that very strongly captures the essence of 'I Am a Soldier.'
Warning: This may make you cry.
