This is a picture of Ann Margaret giving a concert to U.S. and allied troops near Da Nang, Viet Nam, 1966.
I watched her as she gave the concert as gunfire faintly sounded in the distance. An announcement over the loudspeaker interrupted her show, as particular units were dispatched to repel the attack; and there was much shuffling and movement as troops left the concert.Ann Margaret did not blink as she quickly directed her musicians to pick up where they had stopped. The sweating drummer quickly glanced around, picked up the beat, and the rest of the band continued the remainder of the song. Ann Margaret brought the house down, finished her concert as per schedule, and hung out later to sign autographs.
She was, and is, our heroine, sister, and our most wonderful lady.
God bless you Ma’am!
