From the Full Circle Magic Q&A YouTube channel:

Matt DiSero entertains Canadian Armed Forces

Matt DiSero's website says that:

"He has performed for the Canadian Armed Forces to boost morale in such countries as Cypress, Bosnia, the United Arab Emirates, Greenland and even WAY up at the North Pole."

Rumour has it that Matt's recently /  is / is going to entertain the troops again!  The tour involves performances on a battleship in Italy as well as for land troops in Kuwait.  Matt joins hockey players from Team Canada, CFL players and Arlene Dickinson (an honorary Captain in the Navy!).

When you're able to Matt, we'd love to hear if you got to ride on an Airbus, and if a hockey game broke out (though hopefully not on the Airbus)!
