What a Surprise!

My only experience of Gary Sinise was as Lt Dan in Forest Gump and then CSI which I did not watch. A tremendously honest look inside a regular kid who had paths to choose, didn’t always choose the best one, but recovered and became an advocate - a “hands-on” advocate for disabled vets. A great example of how someone takes what comes his way and turns it into something good. Life is full of tough situations - he is proof we can survive and be a positive force in the world. I was inspired to get involved!

A Story of Passion, Purpose and Perseverance

From start to finish, Gary Sinise weaves a story of passion, purpose, and perseverance. Qualities, I believe our forefathers had when they founded this wonderful nation, and qualities Gary Sinise exemplifies today. Grateful American really should be required reading in schools, so young people can see how selfless service can change the world.
