Actor and U.S. veterans’ advocate Gary Sinise is visiting American service members in Afghanistan and Iraq this week ahead of the Christmas holiday.
The 62-year-old Criminal Minds star and founder of the Gary Sinise Foundation posted photos from his trip to Afghanistan this week, where he joined troops and medical staff at Bagram Air Base and posed for pictures with soldiers at the Forward Operating Base Fenty in Jalalabad.

Sinise announced over the weekend that he would traveling to Afghanistan and Iraq this week “for a quick trip to see as many troops as possible,” before he heads back to the States on Friday.

Memo by Gary Sinise@GarySinise states the following;

Greetings from Troops, I'm at the dining facility at Bagram Air Base Afghanistan. Thank you to these brave men and women for your service to our country.

And he also visited: (Photo on site only) Here with some of America’s finest at Forward Operating Base Fenty in Jalalabad Afghanistan.

Sinise also regularly travels across the country and overseas to play music for troops with his Lt. Dan Band, so named for the character he played in the 1994 film Forrest Gump.

Earlier this year, Sinise was chosen to receive the George Catlett Marshall Medal, the highest honor awarded by the Council of Trustees of the Association of the United States Army.

He was also selected to be the Grand Marshal in this year’s Rose Parade, set for January 1 in Pasadena, in honor of his work with veterans.

On Monday, the Hollywood Reporter reported that Snowball Express — a community-based group that works to support children of fallen soldiers, and to provide them with happy memories — had become part of the Gary Sinise Foundation.

“We have opportunities to grow Snowball, involve more children, more families. Unfortunately we have so many,” Sinise told THR. “We want to be able to take care of as many families as possible.”

Personal Note:

I think he should have brought Forrest Gump with him and Bubba
Hell of a good guy and is loved and respected by many troopers.
