    PBS's National Memorial Day Concert Remembers the Sacrifices of
    America's Veterans

    The 2007 National Memorial Day Concert will be broadcast live on
    PBS from the West Lawn of the U.S. Capitol. This concert is an
    annual event to honor American veterans and current members of
    the U.S. Armed Services.

    Gates will open to the public at 5 p.m.

    Acclaimed actors Gary Sinise and Joe Mantegna, both of whom have dedicated themselves to veterans' causes and supporting our troops
    in active service, will reunite for a second time to co-host this moving
    and reverential tribute to America's heroes. They'll be joined by
    eight-time Grammy Award winner Natalie Cole, county music sensation
    Josh Turner, Academy Award–winning actress Dianne Wiest, Emmy and
    Golden Globe Award–winning actor Jimmy Smits, acclaimed actress
    Bonnie Hunt, jazz vocalist Jane Monheit, distinguished actor Charles
    Durning, inspirational singer CeCe Winans, and the National Symphony Orchestra under the direction of Erich Kunzel. General Colin L. Powell,
    USA (Ret.) will reflect on the impact of war on our recently wounded
    soldiers, especially as they contend with long-term disabilities and
    vastly changed expectations for the future.
