Actor, director and producer Gary
Sinise is embarking on his tenth USO tour to provide a morale boost to
Marines, sailors and their family members stationed at the Marine Corps Air
Ground Combat Center in Twentynine Palms, Calif. Sinise, together with the
Lt. Dan Band, will perform a free show March 13, at 2:00 p.m., at Sunset
Cinema. Best known for his Oscar-nominated performance as Lt. Dan in “Forrest
Gump,” Sinise is a strong supporter of the military. Currently, he is
starring in the new hit series “CSI: New York” on CBS.

Last year, Sinise visited troops in Diego Garcia, Singapore, Korea, Iraq,
Kuwait, Qatar, Germany and Italy. He also has visited troops wounded in
Operation Iraqi Freedom who are recuperating at Walter Reed Army Medical
Center and the National Naval Medical Center. Since June, Sinise and the Lt.
Dan Band have entertained military personnel stationed at several military
posts across the United States.

Following a USO tour to Iraq, during which he visited with Iraqi school
children, Sinise co-founded Operation Iraqi Children, which provides
educational materials to students in Iraq through the generosity of the
American people. For more information, visit
