Join us on Operation Insight as we host Specialist Dustin Row, Iraq War veteran and Founder of Songs4Soldiers!
Much is asked of America's youth in times of war. As written by author Brandt Legg, “War is a place where young people who don’t know each other, and don’t hate each other, [are commanded to] kill each other…” Rather than dwell on the callousness of combat, Dustin has transformed his compassion for fellow veterans into real, tangible results. Through Songs4Soldiers, Dustin and his dedicated team have enriched the lives of numerous combat veterans and their families by offering direct assistance, both financially and otherwise. St. Louis, the Metro East, and the broader region are better for it. Without a doubt, the SPC Row who deployed to wartorn Iraq in 2004 was very different from the SPC Row who returned home. Two things, however, remained the same: his love of music and that inner voice beckoning him to serve others. As Dustin has said, "That one year in Iraq has shaped every single thing I do, for the positive." Operation Insight is honored to share Dustin's story and help to promote the awesome work of Songs4Soldiers!

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
