WATCH NOW: Granger Smith Debuts ‘They Were There’ Video Tribute to Veterans
From USO Tours in Iraq, to his Annual Boot Walk, Granger Smith has always made it a point to honor those who afford him the freedom to chase his dreams.
“I’m lucky enough to have achieved a lot of different milestones and accolades in my career, but I realize that doesn’t come from merit alone. I discovered a long time ago that I am allowed to chase these dreams because of men and woman who volunteer to ensure my freedom. I’ve taken entertainment tours to war zones in the Middle East. I’ve walked 400 miles in combat boots to raise money for returning soldiers. And somehow, none of that comes close to repaying my debt of gratitude. When a hero falls, their legacy must live on. Their sacrifice has sewn the fabric of our freedom, and their story must be retold.”
