Tribute to the troops

Soldiers Magazine, May, 2004

REMEMBER veterans by tuning into the National Memorial Day Concert May 30 from 8 to 9:30 p.m. EST. The concert will broadcast live from the West Lawn or the U.S. Capitol on PBS and overseas on the American Forces Radio and Television Network.

The program will be a mix of musical performances, readings and archival footage. It will feature a special segment on the 60th anniversary of D-Day; a tribute to the troops serving in Iraq and Afghanistan, with a special focus on those who have been wounded; and the stories of children who have lost parents in war.
