Gene Simmons (KISS) Tribute to the Military

This video of Gene Simmons tribute to the military is awe inspiring. The aging rocker still has plenty of vitality left to help the servicemen and women rock out while overseas.

Gene proves that he can perform for the Kiss army and the real one as well.

God bless America.
