708th Ambulance Co's Rosebowl Tribute


Who says you can't have fun in a combat zone? Not me and certainly not the 708th Ambulance company out of Illinois. Just before the last Rosebowl we got an e-mail asking for some Illinois units to do shout outs for the game. (Illinois vs USC 2008). After we did the typical group stand ups we decided to do one better an literally came up with this spoof on the spot. BTW there's a reference to DOO DAH in the piece that refers to the Pasadena Doo Dah parade that spoofs the Rosebowl parade. We had a lot of fun doing this and I hope you enjoy it too!

63d's Family Readiness Video


Video on the Army's Family Readiness program. This video is an example of why I love being a Broadcaster. Out the blue my commander calls me and says "The "General wants a video". So I meet with General Mock to see what he has in mind. I wrote the script in one week, and shot it over two weekends and presented it to the General a week later. And, yes, the NFL gave us permission to use the footage of the superbowl.
