Dancing With The Stars Spends Time With The Troops In Germany
This past week, Dancing With The Stars pros Peta Murgatroyd, Tristan MacManus, and Chelsie Hightower travelled to Germany for the USP Tour to spend some time with the troops. Peta wrote that she had fun learning on the history of Germany. “Our first meeting with the troops today was amazing, sitting and eating with them, hearing their stories, was so heart wrenching”, Peta wrote of their first meeting. Peta also wrote that they are “truly unbelievable people” and “we cannot thank them enough!!!” Chelsie tweeted that Germany was “amazing” and it was “awesome to meet the troops and to see what they do on a “day to day” basis. The troops were so appreciative. In fact, one of the troops (I believe it’s one of the troops or someone else they met?) tweeted this touching line to Peta after they left.
Adding: Thanks to PureDWTS reader Rory, here is some cool video coverage of the event.
So cool! I’m so glad they went! I bet they brought many smiles, relief, and comfort to them away from the front lines and their tour of duty!
If you’d like to see more pics like the pics above, be sure to visit Peta’s facebook page. They are amazing!!












Thanks for the pictures! They certainly are amazing.
Also, there’s a short video here: http://wiesbaden.afneurope.net/Home/ArticleDisplayDD/tabid/652/aid/19153/Default.aspx
Awesome. Thanks Rory!!!
Sounds like a good time had by all. Thank you for sharing the pictures and the video.
What can we say. Peta and Chelsie can thaw any cold war. Thanks for thinking of the troops.
Why did Mark drop out? He was on the list if I remember correctly.
I thought he was on the list too, Maddy. I thought maybe I was mis-remembering.
He wrote about it on his blog.oh well..
Who cares if Mark dropped out? Seems he prefers teaching “reality stars” how to dance at their wedding. I, for one, am impressed by Peta and Tristan going on a USO tour and showing their support for the troops, considering they aren’t even American! Those two really sold the troupe for me last season, and I hope DWTS brings them back next season as pros.
Magnolia, I agree. I love Peta and Tristan (and all of the dance troupe). I’d love to see them as pros. I wish the show would have a bigger cast like Season 9 so we could see dancers like Peta, etc given a chance. I want to see Damian back in the worst way as well.
