Willie Nelson Performs for Injured Troops
U.S. soldiers injured in Iraq and being treated in Texas were entertained on Friday by music legend Willie Nelson.
Nelson performed 22 songs during a free concert at the Brooke Army Medical Centre.
“I have a lot of respect for the military,” he said, according to the Associated Press. “I like to show them that I support them every chance I get. We get as much out of it as (the soldiers).”
He used the show to ready himself for a concert at a rodeo in San Antonio.
Nelson performed at the same hospital last year before the rodeo, and lost his voice after 11 songs, forcing him to cancel the rodeo appearance.
