Our group (The U.S. Army Band/Chorus "Pershing's Own") was the featured entertainment for this evening.
I remember that the late President Ford was wearing a really nice black tuxedo at this celebration.
We also backed up Bob Hope in his signature song, "Thanks for the Memories".
This special unit in which I served allowed me to sing
for several U.S. Presidents and a lot of famous people.
We salute Gerald"Our"Ford 1913-2006
for His service to our country. The official U.S Army photo
