Where did you serve and what did you do?

WW11 D-Day 75th Commemorations every hour a ceremony on Omaha Beach and all over Normandy, France. I played bagpipes with 2 pipe bands and as a soloist bagpiper. I was also a soloist on Omaha Beach as the only American military bagpiper in France and at Mass band day on Juno Beach

How are you Still Serving?

I pipe many veteran events in several states and countries. Just this year, approximately 12 countries so far. My tour from May-Sep was canceled due to COVID-19 Alaska to Canada.

Why do you do it?

The instrument of war is and always has been the bagpipes. They should be at every military and veteran ceremony.
