Thirty years ago, audiences around the world were introduced to Forrest Gump and his Army commander, Lieutenant Dan Taylor. For Gary Sinise, who played Lt. Dan, it was not only a major moment in his acting career but also in his relationship with the Army and the military. Since then, he\u2019s raised millions of dollars for veterans, met with Wounded Warriors worldwide and played over 500 concerts for the military. Hosts LTG (Ret.) Leslie C. Smith and SMA (Ret.) Dan Dailey sit down with Gary to discuss the legacy of Forrest Gump, what he\u2019s gotten from his time with the troops, and how music has helped him deal with the recent passing of his son, Mac.\nGuest:\nGary Sinise, American Actor, Gary Sinise Foundation Founder, and 2017 AUSA George Marshall Medal Recipient\n\xa0\nHas a member of the Army positively changed your life?\xa0Now is your chance to thank them publicly with a shoutout via our\xa0Hooah Hotline\xa0and have it possibly appear on an upcoming episode of AUSA\u2019s Army Matters podcast!\n\xa0\nAUSA\u2019s Army Matters podcast can also be heard on\xa0Wreaths Across America Radio\xa0on Monday at 8 pm Eastern\xa0 You can find Wreaths Across America Radio on the iHeart Radio app, the Audacy app, and the TuneIn app. Search the word Wreath.\xa0\n\xa0\nDonate:\xa0If you are interested in supporting AUSA\u2019s educational programs, such as this podcast, please visit\xa0www.ausa.org/donate.\nFeedback:\xa0How are we doing?
