Kellie Pickler

I know this is not new news, but I saw it a while ago and thought it was good enough to post about. Whether or not you are a fan of Kellie Pickler’s, I hope you can appreciate how much she cares about our Troops. Obviously, not everyone in hollywood does.

She went to Iraq in December of 2007 and spent a few days traveling from FOB to FOB and base to base. She entertained the Troops and spent time getting to know them and what they are doing. She rode in a tank, helicopters, helped with a re-enlistment ceremony and a promotion.

There were several highlights to her Iraq diary, but I have to say the Hungarian Soldiers giving her a Hungarian flag was pretty funny. In case you don’t know why that’s funny, when she was on ‘Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader’ she didn’t know that Hungary was a country. The Hungarians made sure she’ll never forget that again!

While Pickler was in Iraq, she kept a video diary of her trip. I have it all here (under the fold) for you to view. Enjoy.
