"CSI:NY star Gary Sinise has spoken out about the importance of helping US military veterans. Sinise said he hopes that people will show kindness to servicemen and woman on Veterans Day, which is Friday, November 11. &amp;quot;I always recommend that people look in their own communities,&amp;quot; he told Parade. Sinise continued: &amp;quot;Maybe there&amp;#039;s a spouse of a service member who could use help, or warriors living with the scars of battle. To knock on the door with a meal or a &amp;#039;What do you need?&amp;#039; can make a big difference in somebody&amp;#039;s life. Whenever I see a group of soldiers sitting in a restaurant, I buy them dinner.&amp;quot; The actor currently heads his own military charity, the Gary Sinise Foundation, in co-operation with the University of Southern California. &amp;quot;[USC] approached me, and I set up a scholarship that would go to a military-oriented person, to learn techniques and skills to better help veterans. We hope to do it on a broader scale around the country,&amp;quot; he said. CSI:NY continues with new episode &amp;#039;Crushed&amp;#039; on Friday at 9/8c on CBS.
