“From Florida to Virginia, a group of Hispanic musicians who serve in the Armed Forces performed in recent years as the Orchestra . . . with Class!!! — occasionally jamming alongside salsa legends such as Oscar D’León and Tito Allen.

Last week, some of these musicians — now renamed The Latin Fire — were offering salsa lessons and a concert at Camp Victory, the U.S. military headquarters in Baghdad.”*
