An inspiring story. I admire Sinise and the way he gives not only money but of himself. This is the story of how he got there. He's a good example for us all.

It was more about his theatrical history and not his acting career

I didn't know how to rate this at first, I really like Gary Sinise and all he does for the troops. I have personally benefited from one of his spirit festivals. But it reads like someone who doesn't write for a living, this happened, this happened, this happened and at one point I did have a take a break before I finished it. It was still interesting to read about his life.

I already liked Gary Sinise but he is even nicer than I knew and he does so much for our armed forces. It was really great to hear all he has been doing not to mention helping start Steppenwolf, a small theater group. I love that he has no problem with all the people that only know him as Lt. Dan from Forrest Gump. Who is Gary Sinise, he says? But say Lt Dan and everyone knows who that is. I highly recommend this book.

Amazing book. Such a great story. So glad to know there are others out there who do what they can to let our veterans know they are not forgotten, that they are important, and cared about.

I wasn't able to finish this one - it was one story about the Chicago acting troupe after another. I was disappointed because I had been looking forward to it.

“Yet I knew I could do more.” These words sum up Gary Sinise’s view of service. In a simple, straightforward style, this memoir details his early years, strong family foundation, career ups and downs, and how he began serving our nation’s vets. Gary is a man who puts family first and has used many of the opportunities Hollywood has given him to serve the men and women of the military. I appreciate his attitude and heart for others. How could I not give this book a 5?
