Justin Moore has great respect for the men and women who serve “The thing that always kind of gets me is, no matter whether it be in a meet and greet or at the supermarket or whatever, when people come up to me who have served or currently serve, they always come up and thank me for our music. And I’m just kind of taken aback because I’m going, ‘No, no, no, no, we don’t do anything. You guys are the ones who should be thanked.’ Anytime we have the opportunity, we try to wave the flag for those men and women.”
