I had never been before, but I knew enough to know that this was a pretty big deal (especially since it was held on the K-State campus' performing arts center here in Manhattan) . Tickets weren't available until 2 days prior to the event...so I showed up at the Main Post travel office as soon as they opened at 10am on Wednesday morning....and scored some GREAT seats! We were on the 4th row, right in the center of the stage.
The show was sold out!!
Here are some photos of the event:

There were musical acts from current songs and modern genre as well as patriotic, WWII (20s), gospel and country themed numbers. There was something for everyone to enjoy!!
Here is one of my favorite songs from the night. Apologies in advance for the poor sound quality - you'll just have to trust me that hearing it in person was truly, "chill bumps" worthy! You can see just how great our seats were!
Here's the ending - the soldiers introduced themselves and then ended the Army Song - loved this!!!
Did you count all the "Hooah"??
It was such a good, wholesome, fun show - we were blown away by the talent of these folks. It also made me extremely proud of my soldier-husband...his employer is totally unique and I just love the patriotism.
