Tim McGraw and Faith Hill Lead Country United Effort to Benefit Military Medicine

Date:9/9/2009

f the National Intrepid Center of Excellence; and

Congressman Joe Wilson (R-SC), member, House Armed Services Committee and Congressional Brain Injury Task Force.

The symposium will encourage public/private collaborations to accelerate advances in care for wounded, ill and injured warriors and civilians. Faith Hill will be the luncheon keynote speaker, joined by Lieutenant Colonel Gregory Gadson. Gadson, who lost his legs to a roadside bomb in Baghdad, was credited by the New York Giants as the inspiration for their victory over the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XLII.

The Country United Gala will take place Saturday, November 7. Hosted by Costas, it will include an awards dinner and silent and live auctions, culminating in performances by Tim McGraw, Faith Hill, the Warren Brothers and friends.

Dean Kamen, inventor of the "Segway," will present the "Visionary Award" at the gala. Kamen and his company, DEKA, have partnered with military researchers to create advanced new prosthetics, including a robotic arm. "I can personally attest to the tremendous value and effectiveness of military-civilian collaborations," Kamen said. "By working together, we can create incredible advances in medical technology that benefit not only our military men and women, but also civilians."

"While only one percent of the U.S. population volunteers to serve in our armed forces, it is the responsibility of the remaining 99 percent of us, as they protect and defend our freedom with their lives, to assure they receive the best possible care," said David J. McIntyre, Jr., president and CEO of TriWest Healthcare Alliance. "It is an honor for TriWest to serve our nation's military population and their families in the West, and our support of the Country United effort is a direct extension of our belief in the importance of ensuring that all who serve have access
