The 2011 Army soldiers show stopped by

00:07.340 --> 00:09.930
Fort Bragg last weekend to entertain

00:09.930 --> 00:12.550
soldiers and their families . This

00:12.550 --> 00:14.717
year's theme for the show was entitled

00:14.717 --> 00:17.540
Carnival a traveling thank you . This

00:17.540 --> 00:19.930
theme focused on showing appreciation

00:20.140 --> 00:22.900
to military service members and their

00:22.900 --> 00:25.990
families for their sacrifices and duty

00:25.990 --> 00:28.010
to country . The 90 minute show

00:28.010 --> 00:30.066
features several musical and dancing

00:30.066 --> 00:32.660
routines based on popular music from

00:32.660 --> 00:35.340
today and yesterday . But being a

00:35.340 --> 00:37.451
performer in the show isn't all glitz

00:37.451 --> 00:39.396
and glamour . The audition process

00:39.396 --> 00:41.507
comes first . Soldiers must mail in a

00:41.507 --> 00:44.070
video of themselves performing , then

00:44.070 --> 00:46.520
wait to hear if they've been selected

00:46.520 --> 00:48.920
for a chance at a live triumph . I was

00:48.920 --> 00:52.900
shaking like a leaf . But um , but

00:52.900 --> 00:55.122
that just comes with the territory . It

00:55.122 --> 00:57.122
comes with being up here on stage ,

00:57.122 --> 00:59.178
right ? But after doing it a million

00:59.178 --> 01:01.344
times I don't take anymore . I'll tell

01:01.344 --> 01:03.567
you that After being accepted , members

01:03.567 --> 01:05.678
of this team , usually put in 14 hour

01:05.678 --> 01:07.789
days . The soldiers participating are

01:07.789 --> 01:09.900
assigned to the show for one year and

01:09.900 --> 01:12.011
then sent back to their duty stations

01:12.011 --> 01:14.220
reporting from Fort Bragg . I'm Army

01:14.220 --> 01:16.910

01:16.910 --> 01:19.540
