Hours. Heres la fo nt plaza. The few roads that remain open, those are busy. If you dont want to deal with that and the limited parking, metro is your best bet. Now, throughout the afternoon, throughout the day, throughout the evening, people have been staggering into the show, but after the show, it appears everyone is going to be coming out all at once. A few hundred thousand. Thats going to be the test tonight. Metro is going to be staying open late. So obviously people too excited out here. But metro is going to be staying open late to relieve some of that congestion. Well be back out here in the middle of all of it. Live on the national mall, well toss it back to you. Dont want to forget the fact that the caps are playing at home tonight as well, which adds extra strain to the metro system. The excitement remains high as the country rocking pop stars kick off this amazing salute to our veterans, the active duty troops, and of course their families. So many stars out there. Bruce leshan is close to them with a slightly obstructed view. How does it look and sound, bruce . Look at this. Jennifer hudson singing the National Anthem. Right here, the concert just got started. I feel incredible. Its almost like we have a front row seat. The stage is the big jumbotron. The lights right here. And a couple of moments ago, they said people make some noise. And it felt like the noise rolled all the way down to the washington monument. This is a chance to set aside the mattress sales, the cookouts, and really salute the troops. This is your chance to see some of musics biggest stars for free at an event so big, even the stars are amazed. Zach brown of the zac brown band. I dont think we played in front of 800,000 people. And what a great cause and great reason to be here playing, you know. It feels amazing. I cant wait to see everything with the light. Lance corporal lost both legs to an ied in afghanistan, but he says he would go back in a second. Its about the guys that have given their lives and we all lost people and we have all given sacrifice. But the one thing is, the guys that are here, they have to carry on that memory and they have to it helps. The show is tarting right now. And organizers were preparing for as many as 800,000, but by mid afternoon, so few people had arrived, the concerts executive producer was starting to freak. Where is everybody . We have rehearsals going on. Im not seeing enough people. The news telling everybody theres going to be a million plus people here discouraged people from coming. The set list is a big secret. But we heard Bruce Springsteen play slow down acoustic versions of dancing in the dark and born in the u. S. A. Born in the u. S. A. Wow. Back now live, i kind of feel guilty. I should have let you listen to that incredible version of the National Anthem by jennifer hudson. Absolutely fantastic. All kinds of stars coming. Bruce springsteen, fired up with u. S. A. Well bring you all the highlights coming up at 11 00. Well keep an eye on that and that and everything else. Were jealous. Thank you. Before the kickoff of tonights big concert, there were ceremonies, and around the mall and down on the mall, and honoring our veterans. Vice President Joe Biden came to Arlington National cemetery this veterans day to lay a wreath at the tomb of the unknown in honor of those who have served. We have an obligation to care for and equip those who we send to war and care for them and their families when they come home. As i said earlier, its the only sacred obligation a government has. We are bound to keep it. The Vice President called americas veterans the heart, the soul, and the spine of this nation. Another veterans day ceremony took place at the world war ii memorial. A few dozen surviving veterans were on hand for that wreath laying. And wall street paid tribute to the nations veterans. Proceeded by two minutes of silence in honor of e men and women of American Armed forces. When big ben struck 11 00 a. M. Today, britain marked the moment when world war i came to an end and honored with this stunning display. Thousands gathered to view the 888, 246 246ciramic poppies. The first plants to go back on those battlefields of france and belgium after the fighting stopped. Since returning from war zones. As Debra Alfarone shows us, many of them are serving is our country in very special ways. Two nights a week, knives and friendships are being forged. And theres one bond in particular that stands out. One between jonathan and shray. I think life would suck. 19yearold, tray, first met jonathan at the uso center on base. I like talking to him. I have a question, actually. At first, the conversation centered around movies and trivia. They are relatedded to religion . And trays dad, who served in afghanistan, and now assigned to fort brag in north carolina. Heres an idea. This soon led to deeper discussions about jonathans service in afghanistan. His traumatic brain injury and ptsd and tray living his life with cerebral palsy. Without jonathan, i wouldnt feel quite as fulfilled as i do now. I like the fact when i talk to him, he seems to get what i was talking about. Jonathan, who lets tray do all the talking, challenges the teenager, never lets him give up and exposed tray to a whole different world. I cant go to the friends that are my age and, you know, ask them to teach me how to make a knife. They arent interested in how to spark a fire with a piece of lint and steel. With jonathan, im doing it and i love it. Debra alfarone, wusa9.
