Michael Peterson “Drink, Swear, Steal and Lie” received the Bob Hope Spirit Of Hope Award for his dedication to US Troops. Originally commissioned by the USO in 1997, the award is given to individuals that have "demonstrated tireless dedication to our country and to U.S. troops, both in times of peace and war." The award was recently given to Peterson at a ceremony held at the Pentagon in Washington, D.C. Past winners of the award include U.S. Senators Strom Thurmond and Daniel K. Inouye, CBS news anchor Walter Cronkite, the Country Music Association, and former astronaut John Glenn. "The men and women in uniform who serve our nation selflessly with honor and integrity are inspiring to be around," says Peterson. "For decades, Bob Hope saluted them with entertainment and encouragement from home. Because of Mr. Hope's sacrifice and service, today's entertainers have the same opportunity. I am grateful for this recognition and the privilege of being associated with his legacy."
