Oh, I’m definitely looking forward to these “Been There, Won That: The Returnification of the American-Do Troopscape!” shows. Probably not as much as the folks mentioned in this New York State Division of Military & Naval Affairs press release, but I’m looking forward to them a lot, nonetheless.
From the release:
New York Army National Guard Soldiers to Appear on “Colbert Report”
Three Soldiers from the New York Army National Guard’s 206th Military Police Company will be featured on special edition of the Comedy Central Show “The Colbert Report” which is set to air on Sept. 8.
Staff Sgt. Kent Theobald from Fort Johnson; Sgt. Joshua Flint from Cherry Valley; and Specialist Jeffrey Vucich from Rhinebeck, will ferry Stephen Colbert up to the doors of his studio in an M1117 Armored Security Vehicle like those operated by Military Police units in Iraq. The skit will open the fake news reports salute to American service personnel who served in Iraq.

I am seriously jazzed about the “Been There, Won That” celebrations this week on the ‘Colbert Report’. Stephen is so amazing to our armed forces, and giving a few of them the opportunity to be part of the fun sounds like a total hoot!

This is going to be quite the celebration! A write-festival for Stephen and crew!
However, if they try that shaving the head stunt again, I swear an army of Fangirls and dare I say, Fanboys will descend upon with pitchforks and torches! Just saying!
Welcome home, troops!

That is so awesome that 1) New York Army National Guard Soldiers are going to be on the show Sept. 8th and 2) Stephen gets to ride in M1117 Armored Security Vehicle. By the way, I had to google ‘M1117 Armored Security Vehicle’ to see just what it looked like – very bada$$ indeed! :)
These shows are going to rock!
