As an actor — who pretends to dodge fake bullets on TV and in movies, while real life military service men/women stand tall in the face of real bullets everyday — I’m not sure why I would ever deserve any “honor” or “awards” for my work. The true honor for me is being lucky enough to portray real life heroes, like 1st Lt Carwood Lipton in #BandOfBrothers, who have put their lives on the line for our freedom. That said, I was incredibly humbled to receive this acknowledgment from @variety #SaluteToService last week. Hopefully, in some small way, my work serves as a tribute to the service that our military men and women have done (and continue to do) for us. Thank you to all our #Veterans, and their families, on this #VeteransDay! Also, a #Salute to my fellow recipients — @tulsigabbard (thank you for your courageous service Tulsi) @norahodonnell @dbodbo69 @cindymccain @loudphillips @whiteslither Special thanks to @cbstv @history @variety @cbsvetnet @cbstvstudios @theuso #thankful 🙏🏼💙❤️
