Today at 3 p.m., in celebration of Independence Day, Newsmax will air the special concert “Lee Greenwood: God Bless the U.S.A.” — featuring the acclaimed singer and major celebrities.

When to Watch: 3 p.m. ET Today, July 4

Greenwood, a big supporter of former President Donald Trump, is known for his 1984 signature anthem, with its chorus proclaiming “I’m proud to be an American.” Trump uses the song at his rallies.

Greenwood sings “God Bless the U.S.A.” with accompanying artists Lee Brice, Dustin Lynch, Michael Ray, Neal McCoy, Billy Dean, and Rodney Atkins, among others.

Intertwined throughout performances are interview segments telling the story behind the making of the song, which was nominated for two Grammy Awards and was widely played during the Gulf War and after the terror attacks of 9/11.

Greenwood also shares his gratitude to America’s military veterans. During the special, which first aired on Newsmax during the Memorial Day weekend, Greenwood presents two homes to injured veterans through his nonprofit Helping a Hero.

“I still can’t believe so many of my music friends came to be part of this special taping where we were able to give two homes to veterans,” Greenwood said in a news release.

Greenwood, 81, who is a Grammy, Country Music Association, and American Country Music award winner, has seen “God Bless the U.S.A.” make it to the top five on the country singles charts three times.

He has long been known for his support of the military, having entertained troops on more than 30 USO tours. He was honored with the Congressional Medal of Honor Society’s National Patriots Award in 1992.

He is currently featured on the DVD “An All Star Salute to Lee Greenwood.”
