I'm a Soldier




 

"...I'll continue to do the right thing for the Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marines. I'm here for you. Call me when you need me. We all are free because of the sacrifices you've made..." -Denzel Washington


[Faithwire.com] Actor Denzel Washington is adding yet another role to his ever-growing resume: Honorary Sergeant Major of the Army (SMA). 


But this title has very little to do with acting and everything to do with Washington's real-life support of the military.


Washington is only the second civilian to receive this honor—a title bestowed upon him for his work with the Fisher House Foundation, an organization that builds homes for military members' and veterans' families to stay in while a loved one is recovering from wounds.


Washington's selection for the Honorary SMA was recently formally announced at the Annual Association of the US Army conference, as Movieguide noted.

Task and Purpose has more about Washington's involvement in this charity.
