HUNTSVILLE, AL (AP) -
An Army officer stationed in Alabama has accepted a mission to
interview celebrities attending the Academy Awards in Los Angeles.
Al.com reports Col. Martha Brooks, a public affairs officer at Redstone Arsenal near
Huntsville, is scheduled to walk the red carpet at the award ceremony
Sunday and ask celebrities to give shout outs to soldiers. She also
plans to interview some nominees.
Brooks says she got the job from a fellow Army
public affairs officer in Los Angeles who needed someone that wouldn't
be intimidated or star struck by Hollywood celebrities.
The trip almost didn't happen when budget cutbacks
caused the Army to pull the plug. But Brooks insisted on completing the
mission and decided to pay for the trip herself.
