Forgotten Heroes; Born out of Friendship and
Respect.
When Joe Cantafio came back from entertaining the
troops in Iraq in 2004, one of the first people he
contacted was his life long friend, Bob Kolling. A
decorated war hero, Kolling is also one of Joe’s
personal heroes.
Together, Joe and Bob created Forgotten Heroes, a
foundation to entertain Veterans in VA hospitals
and enlisted men and women around the world.
Forgotten Heroes even sponsors and promotes
entertainment on the frontline of Iraq and
Afghanistan.
In expanding its mission, Forgotten Heroes turned
to Patriot Entertainment to reach out beyond VA
hospitals to include military bases around the
world, and here at home, through live concert
tours. In addition to the entertainment, the 101st
Rock Division will also deliver messages of
support and hope from individuals, families, and
American businesses.
Bob Kolling understands the importance of morale
boosting entertainment on the frontline. During
the War in Vietnam, serving in the
Army's 1st Cavalry, Bob was
ambushed and lost his leg in battle. He struggled
through 20-years of indifference after the war was
over for him, and co-founded the
DuPage County Chapter of Vietnow
in Illinois. 
When he is in Washington D.C., you'll always find
Kolling visiting his buddies at "The
Wall,"
The National Vietnam Veterans War Memorial.
Forgotten Heroes is a 501 (C)(3) organization
