Billy Ray Cyrus -- who recently walked away with an armful of trophies at the TNN Music City News Country Awards --
is receiving an honor of a different kind this weekend. The country star is performing a concert at a Native American reservation
in Wisconsin on Sunday to benefit a program that helps families that have experienced domestic violence, drug and alcohol
problems. During the show, a Vietnam veteran from the reservation is set to honor Cyrus with an eagle staff and feather, the
highest honor given to Native Americans. Cyrus, who is one-quarter Native American, dedicated his song "Some Gave All" to
Vietnam soldiers.
