Yeah.
My first meal was something like Subway or Burger King when I got to Kandahar.
Bartering incidents.
On that trip, the guy that played Bubba in Forrest Gump, Michael T. Williamson, I took him with me on that trip.
Or families.
Or families.
You know, like I said, I got involved a long time ago, decades ago, and it just kind of spiraled into something.
I wrote a book called Grateful American, and there's a chapter in the book called Turning Point.
And that is really the September 11th chapter and what that moment was.
did to kind of galvanize me toward the service or veterans and first responders.
And before I had my own foundation, one way that I would do it was
start with a lot of different foundations that were in a lot of different spaces, right?
Helping our wounded, building houses for them, helping our families of our fallen, entertainment, whatever it was.
And I would get involved with a lot of different organizations and support them.
And so that gave me a lot of insight into where the needs were and what different organizations were doing to fill those needs and how I as a public figure could best benefit that effort.
So I started getting more and more and more involved in all these different efforts.
I actually – the home building stuff that we do where we build houses for our wounded service members, that actually started – I got involved with that before I had a foundation.
So once I created the foundation, we created a program.
We started raising money.
Now we just gave away our 101st home that I've been involved with.
