For nearly 40 years, Gary has stood as an advocate on behalf of America's service members. It began in the early '80s, supporting local Vietnam veterans groups in the Chicago area, and into the '90s, when his portrayal of Lt. Dan formed an enduring connection with service members throughout the military community, and as he worked on behalf of the Disabled American Veterans organization, which he continues to actively support today. Following the attacks of September 11, 2001, Sinise's dedication to our nation's active duty defenders, veterans, first responders and their families has become a tireless crusade of support, service and gratitude for all those who protect our freedom and serve our country.

Gary serves as the Founder, President and Chairman of the Gary Sinise Foundation.

"With the recent addition of a Duty & Honor Category to our Beaufort International Film Festival, we believe that Gary Sinise's association with our organization will be the spark needed for filmmakers to make films that tell the proud stories or our military, law enforcement and first responders. We need for those stories to be told.", stated Ron Tucker, President, Beaufort Film Society.
