This Special Podcast features Jonathan Flora, Executive Producer of the documentary “Lt. Dan Band,” an award-winning producer with Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment, and Founder of Lamplight Entertainment.

After 9/11 Actor Gary Sinise, also known for his role as Lt. Dan in “Forrest Gump” vowed to never to forget those who are willing to give all. He started a band that would fly in to war stricken parts of the Middle East and perform for the troops.

Flora followed Sinise and the Lt. Dan Band and filmed him performing for the troops, thanking them for the work they do. The mission has been turned into a movie starring Sinise by Flora called “Lt. Dan Band: For The Common Good” launching July 4th in theaters.

Flora, interviewed by “Rabble Rousin'” Rich Bergeron, discusses the production of the film, Gary Sinise’s work to support the troops, and his own interaction with troops and administration officials in association with the movie.
