There For The Troops

USA Patriotism! proudly recognizes . . . country music duo and patriots Eddie Montgomery and Troy Gentry for their ongoing support of our troops through their performances and other efforts.

It has been the case since their debut in 1999, which is a world of blue-collar anthems, tales of life, work, love, loss, and patriotism balanced by the hard-partying spirit . . . and that has made them one of the top country music duo performers of all time.

In particular, it is how they share an appreciation for America's brave, honorable veterans and troops. For Montgomery Gentry that is something that dates back to the release of their first record.

Moreover, they have done many shows for military personnel through the years, but in 2006 for the first time they were able to travel to visit troops in Kuwait, Iraq and Germany as part of a USO tour. It was a journey that affected both deeply.

It was an eye-opening experience for me,  seeing what our soldiers are doing to battle terrorism . . . and help the Iraqis and Afghanis gain a better way of life," says Gentry.
"I don't ever want to hear anybody say, 'I don't know if this generation has got what it takes,' . . . We've got the baddest men and women in the world . . . and knowing that they've got our backs reminds me every day why America is the greatest country in the world and will always be the greatest," says Eddie.

Eddie also feels, "Every American should have to go over and see the stuff I have seen  and they would understand all that the US Forces do for our country."And Eddie and Troy's words of pride and respect for the troops and veterans are best illustrated when performing in front of them and in meeting with them up close.

America needs more "patriot" stars like Eddie Montgomery and Troy Gentry, who will always be there for the troops . . . and deserve the recognition they have earned including…
