Kudos to Tom Hanks. His narration was professional to the enth degree. His voice lends

I had travelled to LA for the Blockbuster Entertainment Awards. During his speech Tom was advocating the building of the WWII memorial and I thought the exact same thing. I thought 'this is the right guy to be advocating for this important memorial'.

Thanks Tom! You knocked this film out of the park!
