Fellow American,



It's Gary Sinise here.



You may know me from my roles in movies like Apollo
13 and The Green Mile or the CBS television series CSI NY- but it
was in 1994 and playing the role of Lt. Dan in Forrest Gump that
my life changed and inspired my enduring connection to our
defenders, veterans, and first responders.



This year, I'm honored to again serve as an
Honorary Grand Marshal for the National Memorial Day Parade in
Washington, D.C.



The National Memorial Day Parade is an event like
no other … and this year, as we mark the 80th anniversary
of the D-Day invasion, the American Veterans Center is bringing
the Parade BACK in full force, with 5,000+ participants marching
down Constitution Avenue before a crowd of 250,000+ in-person, as
well as a T.V. broadcast that reaches 100 million households
around the country.



Fellow American/Fellow American, the National Memorial Day
Parade is PRIMARILY FUNDED by private contributions, including
from generous Americans like you. Will you help chip in today to
help support the Parade with a gift of $25, $50, $75, $150, or
more?

The National Memorial Day Parade costs a fraction
of other major public events to put on each year. In fact, the
entire parade costs about as much as just THREE balloons in the
Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade or TWO floats in the Rose Bowl
Parade!



That means that every dollar that's contributed by
a generous American like you makes a difference for this
important event.



Your support of the American Veterans Center not
only helps the Parade, but also supports great programs like:



Recording hundreds of oral histories of
veterans from World War II to today before we lose these stories
forever.

Holding our National Youth Summit which allows
young students a chance to hear firsthand from veterans from
WWII, Korea, and Vietnam.

Producing veteran-focused T.V. documentaries
and specials that remind Americans of the price of our freedom.



Please join me in support of the National Memorial
Day Parade with a gift of $25, $50, $75, $150, $250, $500, or
more right now.



If you've been looking for an opportunity to give
back to those who have given so much for our freedom, this is one
of the best ways you could possibly do it.



And for a special group of veterans, this might be
one of the last chances we get.



You see, with each year that goes by, we lose more
and more of our World War II veterans, and for the few we have
remaining, traveling to Washington, D.C. for the parade is
difficult.



I am honored to say that we will have several World
War II veterans with us for this year's parade... but I don't
know how many more years we'll have that precious opportunity.



So this year, as we mark the 80th anniversary of
the D-Day invasion and what might be the last chance these great
men have to gather together, I encourage you to help us honor
them while we still have them with us.



And no matter how much you can give to this
important cause, I want to ask something additional of you.





On Memorial Day - this year and every year - please
join me in honoring those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our
freedoms.



Come to the National Memorial Day Parade in D.C.
Visit a local veterans' cemetery. Send a note to a family of the
fallen. Or simply take a quiet moment to think about the men and
women who gave their lives to defend OUR country.

I believe that while we can never do enough to
express our gratitude to our defenders, veterans, and first
responders, we can always do a little more.



Fellow American/Fellow American, thank you for your support
of America's heroes, and please - if you're able, make a gift to
help fund the National Memorial Day Parade right now.

























Sincerely,



Gary Sinise

Honorary Grand Marshal
