Gary Sinise: From Hollywood to Helping Heroes

I could actually go out there and do something to support the men and women who were deploying to Iraq and Afghanistan, and all of that has manifested into just a gigantic full-time operation here with The Gary Sinise Foundation.
What happens when a Hollywood star uses his fame to make a real difference? In this episode of 'American Medicine Today', Gary Sinise, known for his iconic roles in films like 'Forrest Gump' and 'Apollo 13', shares his journey from the silver screen to supporting our nation's heroes. Hosts Kimberly Bermel Benati, Ethan Euchre, and Jeff Wagstaff sit down with Sinise to discuss his deep commitment to military members, veterans, and their families through The Gary Sinise Foundation.
Inspired by his portrayal of a disabled veteran in 'Forrest Gump', Sinise felt compelled to take action. He talks about the foundation's mission to provide everything from specially adapted smart homes to mental health support for those who have served. The conversation also touches on the often-overlooked Vietnam veterans and the critical need for national unity in supporting our troops.
Sinise's passion is evident as he reflects on his role in the Disabled American Veterans organization and the broader impact of celebrity involvement in such causes. If you're looking for a story of genuine dedication and practical support for those who've sacrificed so much, this episode is a must-listen.
