On this day in KISStory - April 1, 2005, KISS closed the Rockin' The Corps concert held at Camp Pendleton Marine Corps Base in San Diego. The free concert was organized as a thank you for the Marines who have served in Iraq and their families stationed at the base. The event was attended by approximately 55,000 active duty military personnel and their families and broadcast by the Armed Forces Radio and Television Network to servicemen, servicewomen and civilians at bases world-wide.

Here's a fan review of the event:

Hi KISS!

I just got back from an amazing KISS Expo in Cleveland this past Sunday! The Kiss Army was out in full force with fans of all ages. Bruce Kulick signed autographs and held a Q&A session during the day. Cleveland's own Mr. Speed played an amazing set of KISS classics, including numerous tracks from "Sonic Boom," which the crowd was thrilled to hear. Representatives from KISS Army Arkansas and KISS Army Missouri hosted a trivia contest too. It was a fantastic day, and I came home with many new KISS shirts from KISSonline's table. Can't wait until next year!
