Martin Sheen, Sam Waterston & The Gettysburg Address (on location!!!) History Traveler Episode 346
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qAXFRxp4gYc
When it comes to the Gettysburg battlefield, there’s no place that’s more important than Cemetery Hill. This is the high ground that the Army of the Potomac fought to defend and that the Army of Northern Virginia tried to take in July of 1863. It’s also where President Lincoln delivered one of the most famous speeches of all time. While at The Gettysburg Film Festival, we received an invitation from The Adams County Historical Society to film a special moment where the Gettysburg Address was delivered with Martin Sheen, who played Robert E. Lee in the movie Gettysburg, & Sam Waterston, who both played Lincoln and voiced him in Ken Burns’ “The Civil War”. Enjoy.

“The words of the Gettysburg Address need to be taken sacred and should be essential for our youth to know and understand again. Without remembering our past we doom ourselves in repeating it.”
Gary Sinise’s F-18 Super Hornet Flight to the USS Theodore Roosevelt in 2017

On #ThrowbackThursday, we go back to 2017 when our Founder & Chairman, Gary Sinise, flew in an F-18 Super Hornet to the USS Theodore Roosevelt. The day before the flight, Gary completed survival training at Marine Corps Air Station Miramar, where he also spent some time in the pool learning how to survive in case of a water landing. “Launching off the deck was a tremendous rush. It was a short trip, but a trip I will never forget,” said Gary. “Once again, I was let into our military community to visit up close their courage and skill. The pilots are amazing, of course, but hats off also to the men and women who man the decks of our carriers doing the incredibly dangerous work as our fighter jets, cargo planes, and helicopters keep coming in and going out all day long.”
