QUEENSRŸCHE Rocks Troops At Fort Benning; Video Available

June 24, 2009

On Monday, May 18, QUEENSRŸCHE rocked the troops at Fort Benning, Georgia in between tour dates in support of their new Rhino Records CD, "American Soldier".

The post welcomed QUEENSRŸCHE with "open arms" as they gave all band members and their crew an exhilarating ride in an M1A1 Abrams tank and an M2 Bradley tank.

In addition to that experience, the band dined with the troops earlier in the day and gave a concert performance on Sledgehammer Field, Kelley Hill in the afternoon.

To commemorate the day, the band was given a personalized sledgehammer by the 3HBCT / 3 ID Sledgehammer Brigade (3rd Brigade of the 3rd Infantry Division).

Check out photos at this location.

Video footage of the event can be viewed below.

QUEENSRŸCHE will continue to tour throughout the year in support of "American Soldier" and plans to visit and perform for more troops along the way.
