KUWAIT CITY, Kuwait -

The Operation Appreciation team arrive at Camp Arifjan and are greeted by the commander.

For several years, Summit Racing Equipment has sponsored a very special trip overseas for a fortunate group of championship drivers. Operation Appreciation has proved to be a very meaningful experience for Summit Racing Pro Stock drivers Greg Anderson and Jason Line, Harley-Davidson Screamin' Eagle Vance & Hines Pro Stock Motorcycle riders Andrew Hines and Eddie Krawiec, and 25-time BIGFOOT® 4x4 Monster Truck champ Dan Runte. It is always an eye-opening excursion after which the group returns home with a renewed appreciation for what the men and women of our Armed Forces are experiencing on a day-to-day basis.

Of course, it's an enjoyable time for the group as they are greeted with open arms by the United States military at each base they visit, and although the purpose of the trip is to bring a little bit of home and good cheer to the troops in gratitude for their service, those on the receiving end are eager to show their visitors just how much the gesture of the visit means to them.

Greg Anderson shares his perspective of Day Five of the trip
