LOS ANGELES (AP) – “Jeopardy!” and “Wheel of Fortune” aren’t playing around when it comes to marking Veterans Day.
The game shows, in cooperation with the veterans’ support campaign Got Your 6, are using this week’s episodes to spotlight those who have served.
On “Wheel of Fortune,” all of the contestants have been in a branch of the U.S. military. And host Pat Sajak, an Army veteran, joined with other vets and show presenter Vanna White to tape a series of public service announcements.
The PSAs that will air during “Wheel of Fortune” aim to counter stereotypes and myths about veterans, said Army vet and Got Your 6 spokeswoman Kate Hoit.
Sajak said he was thrilled to “honor others who have served their country.”
