Tony Sirico, Jon Stinchcomb, James Gandolfini, and Rose McGowan touch down at the NATO facility in Northern Kabul, April 2, 2010.
We were thrilled to receive a note earlier this week from Captain Jane Campbell, USN, after having the USO's Spring Chairman's Tour swing through her location.
"Once again -- the USO Tour was a HUGE hit here at the NATO facility at North Kabul Int'l Airport....something like this sure makes a world of difference. And, I think the Sopranos enjoyed meeting some of the Italian troops here. ;-) " Thanks, Captaing Campbell, for your service and for the service of everyone serving at NATO command in Kabul. We're happy to share your pictures!
