This Memorial Day, Tim McGraw gave military members and veterans a real treat when he put on a military-only live performance at Manhattan’s Beacon Theater.

The service men and women of our country make huge sacrifices to fight battles on our behalf and keep the freedoms we hold dear.

The reality, of course, is more nuanced. The fact is that Keith is simply not shy about speaking his mind, as readers discovered when Keith was asked to share his thoughts on gay

They say the only way to understand someone is to walk a mile in their shoes. Texas Country artist Granger Smith walked 100 miles from Austin to the Fort Hood Military Post in Kileen, Tx to support our troops. It took 5 days, countless steps and one pair of combat boots to complete the mission...

Remembering the sacrifice made by so many brave men and women throughout the years and those that gave all for us.

I really believe some of the most important people in our country are our Veterans. Don't forget to keep all the military guys and girls in your thoughts and prayers as well as their amazing families who sacrifice so much for us every day.
