Gene Simmons and his daughter Sophie visited our Troops at Camp Pendleton and Long Beach Veterans Hospital.
At some point, the Rock Star decided to try to get through an obstacle course and asked the staff to take him through a typical course that Marines would go through in boot camp.
Needless to say, his Rock Star status (and his age) didn’t get him through the obstacle course with any kind of dignity at all. But he had fun doing it and as usual doesn’t take himself too seriously.

His visit to the Long Beach Veterans Hospital took on a more serious tone …..

He rocked out for the Troops!
Rock on Kiss!!!
Ms. Underestimated has the video and interview transcript with Simmons.
