Air and Sea Show productions continue to this day, and sponsorship continues to expand. Hyundai has recently renewed their contract for three more years, and A National Salute to America’s Heroes will launch again on Memorial Day Weekend 2022, May 28-29.

The 2021 event was widely covered in the media following the initial setbacks due to the coronavirus pandemic. Fox News provided coverage of the air and sea spectacle, and Peter Berg narrated, directed, and produced the television special, “Gold Star Tribute: A National Salute to America’s Heroes”. The show provided highlights from the event and helped to share the stories of Gold Star families who have lost their loved ones in the Iraq War. This is but one of many facets of A National Salute to America’s Heroes which is dedicated to honoring those who have made dedicated their lives to our country. The organization also helps to raise funds for Folds of Honor, a nonprofit foundation which provides scholarships to families of the fallen and disabled service member s.

As the event continues to expand, it is the hope of the production team that this will increase awareness of those who have made the ultimate sacrifice in pursuit of our nation’s freedom. It is an honor and a privilege to organize an event with such a meaningful mission.
