Gary Sinise to Perform State Theater Benefit
Actor Gary Sinise's Lt. Dan Band will perform benefit show for wounded Whitehall veteran in August.
You might know Gary Sinise from the movie Forest Gump, or for playing the lead role on CSI: NY.
But when Sinise takes the stage at Easton's later this summer, it will be as a musician, not as an actor.
Sinise's Lt. Dan Band is scheduled to perform a show Aug. 17 to benefit Sgt. Adam Keys, a Whitehall Township Army veteran who lost both legs and his left hand in an IED explosion in 2010.
