Just in time for Veteran's Day comes an article about just that - inspiration and the military.
The HUB at Musician's Friend talked to a few musicians who have been inspired by members of the military, and to some military spouses who talked about the music that inspires them - especially during those tough times like deployments.
These interviews culminated in Music Is My Rock: Veterans Share Stories of Musical Inspiration.
What music inspires you?
PS... I was one of the military spouses interviewed for this article. I share what song helped me get through Joe's deployment to Afghanistan, and also a memory of music being part of my family's life when my dad was stationed at Ramstein AB in Germany.

What a cool memory of your dad! Have you seen Jersey Boys? We took my parents a few years ago and to see them dancing and singing along. Just magic.
You are so right though, how a song can transport you. Every time I hear "Just a dream" by Carrie Underwood I am taken back to that moment I was driving home from the NICU certain that when I got back the next day Bridget would be gone.
Yet on a happier note, I cannot hear the song "Baby I need your loving" without being transported back to my wedding day.
