The Singing Blue Starsof the USS Hornet is a group of ladies who specialize in performing songs from the 40's and 50's to entertain a variety of Veterans' and Seniors' groups. VA Hospitals, The American Legion, The Shriners, The VFW and Rotary Clubs are just a few of the groups they have entertained. And, on occasion, they sing at other public and private functions. They perform for donations to the USS Hornet Museum or a chapter of the Blue Star Mothers of America, who work to support our troops with care packages, postcards and love.
Formerly known as The Singing Blue Star Moms, the common bond of the membersis that they have sons, daughters or other family members that are currently serving or are veterans of the U.S. Military. Most of them have "kids" that served recently in Afghanistan and/or Iraq. Their singing has not only helped them to support each other, but has provided a joyous outlet that takes our older Vets and Seniors down "memory lane" once more.
