I got this sent to me in an email at work, I did a search and it didn't turn anything up. I apologize if you've already seen it, but it is a pretty good video.
Here's the link to the video.
John Ondrasik (the singer-songwriter from the group 'Five for Fighting') is one of the most pro-GI people in pop music. And in this video, it shows. You may have heard the song before but this video is new.
In the beginning, he goes into a pawn shop to pawn a flag... the pawnbroker is in his sixties, and over his shoulder you see a photo of a young Vietnam era warrant officer with aviator wings and the Medal of Honor. And yes... that really is an honest to goodness Medal of Honor recipient in the video - not an actor.
The video on this site was produced by TriWest Healthcare Alliance (a TRICARE contractor), and the site is an established fund-raiser for a nonprofit organization known as 'Operation Homefront' - www.operationhomefront.org - dedicated to supporting servicemembers and their families.
