I
was fortunate to be leave Tuesday, October 12th
to
entertain the US military men and women
who
are part of the peace keeping force in
Bosnia
& Kosovo.
Whether
or not you politically agree with the
US
involvement
in
Bosnia & Kosovo -
I'm
sure you agree
that
the men and women who are serving our country
and
putting their lives on the line need our support.
It
is with this feeling of support and patriotism
that
I forged ahead
on
my journey to Europe by commercial airline.
(Bosnia
is located east of Italy,
the
boot at the lower bottom of the map.)
.
.
Once
we landed we will rested for a few hours
and
then we began our trip in and about Bosnia & Kosovo.
Travel
was be by armed motorcade and helicopter.

While
in Bosnia & Kosovo,
I
performed as a member of the "Wolf Creek Band".

Forces representing 51 nations!

We
returned Wednesday, October 27th to LAX.
