The group was announced ahead of their all expense paid trip to Disney World organized by American Airlines and the Gary Sinise Foundation. One person began singing the national anthem, and then others joined in, eventually forming an impromptu chorus belting out the “Star Spangled banner.” The trip is called the “Snowball Express” and is hosted every year for families of the fallen.
