Celtic Aire Leaves Us O'Flabbergasted at the McUSO














USO at Camp Virginia recently hosted a concert by Celtic Aire, a musical group composed of the U.S. Air Force Singing Sergeants. Members of Celtic Aire are Technical Sgts. Joseph Haughton, Julia Brundage, and Emily Lewis, and Master Sgt. Eric Sullivan.

We were initially somewhat bewildered because we never previously had this type of group entertain at the USO. However, it took less than one song for Celtic Aire to win over just about everyone inside the Center.

Celtic Aire is a group of very talented, highly trained, enormously gifted singers and musicians. Any one of the members would be fabulous alone, but together they were phenomenal. The group played Irish folk songs and dance music, American Blue Grass and country, drinking tunes and bar ditties. Between the jigs and sing-alongs, the jokes and stories, their show seemed much shorter than the 75 minutes they played.

Come back, come back, come back soon Celtic Aire. We love you! You are awesome!
