On the eve of Memorial Day, a star-studded lineup will grace the stage for one of PBS' highest-rated programs. This multi-award-winning television event has become an American tradition, honoring the military service and sacrifice of all our men and women in uniform, their families at home and those who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our country.

My parents went to it a number of times when they lived in Arlington. It’s a super hot weekend in the Southeast: anyone who’s going should take lots of water and a fan.

That was great. Very dignified. Thanks for the link. Glad they got out of there before the skies opened up last night — terrible thunder, lightning and buckets of rain!

I’m furious for having missed it. No excuse, I simply forgot.

Before the concert, PBS showed another gem: “D-Day at Pointe du Hoc.” I missed that, too.

I may have seen this before, but I’d like to DVR it for future viewing.

I have scoured the PBS site, but cannot find any sign of a rebroadcast.

Can anyone help me find this so I can save it?

Thanks!
