If you listen to my internet talk show for Navy spouses, Navy Homefront Talk! you know how much I appreciate USAA. I appreciate not only their financial services but their commitment to support the troops and their families.

I just learned about their latest project to support the troops and I have to tell you about it! Airing on ABC this Sunday evening, Sep 7 at 6pm Pacific (9pm Eastern), USAA presents America United in Support of Our Troops; an all-star tribute honoring our servicemembers. Among the performers and celebrities appearing will be Toby Keith, Snoop Dogg, ZZ Top, Jessica Simpson, Janet Jackson, Clint Black, comedians Carlos Mencia, Kathy Griffin and many more.

There is a long tradition of top entertainers performing for the troops [wartime or peacetime] both abroad and in the US. I may be wrong but I can't remember a previous special for the troops since the beginning of this current conflict...can you? Why do you think that is?

This two-hour TV special is sponsored by USAA. They have assembled a great line-up and I'm not going to miss it. Hope you'll check it out with me...and hey, let me know what you think...
