Kid Rock

Operation Troop Aid (OTA) honored Kid Rock last week in Nashville with the 2014 Operation Troop Aid "Patriot Award." Presented annually by OTA, the Patriot Award recognizes celebrities who champion the men and women serving in the American Armed Forces. Rock was awarded the Eagle Trophy for his endeavors to support troops overseas and at local hospitals, as well as his humanitarian efforts in support of numerous military charities.

"Kid Rock is one of the most giving entertainers I have ever met," stated OTA founder and executive director Mark Woods. "He really gets it... Last year, Kid Rock challenged his fans to help raise money to send care packages to the troops. In one short month, we were able to ship over 500 care packages just in time for the holidays. His art, legacy of family and Spirit of Patriotism is exactly why this award exists."
