men and women and the impact their service has on their families," said

'Brothers At War' to produce this inaugural event to give Americans a
chance to meet and thank the troops and give our Armed Services members a
night of fun with family and friends."

said David Marshall Pryce, Managing Partner of Phoenix VIP Events. "We
