As Stephen Cochran and his amazing New Country Outlaws band performed for a packed New Year’s Eve crowd at Nashville Center Stage, he had but one goal in mind; to entertain the packed house and make sure the U.S. troops got some good cheer through the webcast he provided them. Cochran, an Iraq and Afghanistan Marine vet, was severely wounded in 2005 on his last tour, but has become unstoppable in his determination to advocate for veterans and U.S. troops. Continuously using his phenomenal country music talents of songwriting and performing to improve the morale of his fellow vets, has become his trademark and endured him to thousands of new fans. Halfway through his show, Cochran was caught off-guard, as his name was called by Master Sgt James Mackey who joined him on stage and presented him with the “Flag Of Honor,” which contains the names of all those who perished in the 911 terrorist attacks. As Cochran held up the flag, he reminded his fans of what his mission is all about: making a difference for fellow veterans and troops abroad. Wiping a tear, Cochran proved his words with, ”I’m humbled.” Joining forces with The Chris Casselo Trio, the Wayne Mills Band, Tim Scott, and Cochran’s fiancée, Annabelle Bainum, the show was a definite crowd pleaser for troops watching the webcast and fans and vets on the home front.
The Flag of Honor part of the Flag of Honor Fund is available on a limited number basis, only 1-2250. There are Limited Edition flags that can only be purchased to be given to one of the surviving family members that died in the 9-11 attacks.
