Bringing Comedy To The Troops

War and combat are one of the most stressful things a soldier will face and although they train for it, it's not always easy.   Right now, we are seeing a huge increase in suicides for the soldiers and providing comedy shows for the troops is just one of the many ways our nation is trying to deal with this tragic issue. It has been said, “Laughter is the best medicine”. It also turns out that comedy can be a preventative medicine as well. For years, stand up comedians have been entertaining the troops in war zones and on the front lines and Bob Hope really started it by showing the importance of bringing a piece of home to the men and women serving in the military.

Bryan "Bear" Patridge LTC, MP Commander agrees to the importance of humor, “It is a stress reliever. Combat zone or not, life for Soldiers is just plain tough at times. We have to be able to add some levity and not take ourselves so seriously all the time. Humor is and can be a common bond between the everyday Soldier and his leaders - regardless of rank”.

When soldiers create a human connection with others the probability of suicide lowers. “These people are at war and it's really hard on them." said Brian S. Hornback, CMSgt, USAF. “Your simple act of gratitude, support and dedication to

the men and women in the United States Military not only defines what makes our country so great but remind us of what we're fighting for”.

Actors Christian Slater and Kal Penn recently stopped in during one of Barnhart’s comedy tours to meet and great the troops, shake hands and sign autographs.. Slater commented, “It’s truly is an honor to be here”.

Penn, best known from the “Harold And Kumar” movies talked with Barnhart after the tour. “I was totally blown away by the women and men out there who are serving so tirelessly. Hopefully we can do something else. I’m impressed with how involved you are.”

“We all have a part to play. Some of the soldiers are truly amazed that we would come this far to do a show and take the time to visit with them. It shows them that America cares and they are not forgotten”, added Barnhart.

“Often times, they just need something to connect them to home and these shows may be the factor to keep them going when things get tough. Even though I feel like the water boy on a Super Bowl team, I know we need to keep our team refreshed so they can do their jobs and come home to their friends and families”.
