Did you even know that The Jets existed? Well I had forgotten until we went to Truman's Around the World presentation at school. Each group had to take a virtual trip to a foreign country. Truman's group went to Trinidad and Tobago. They had to plan out a trip and then write a journal as if they had actually gone. Truman's group even came over and tie-dyed matching shirts. They were supposed to serve a food from their country but you can't bring in homemade food. So they made snowcones and passed out samples of Chutney. Truman reported that the donuts that Sweden was passing out were more popular. I was really impressed with how well the displays turned out and the oral presentations were fun too.
The presentation before Trinidad was Tonga. Truman's friend Grant was in that group and had some insider info being that he is Tongan. They did the Haka. Then they said that their tour guides were his two uncles who are on the "Biggest Looser". And somehow managed to work in the part that Grant's Dad was in the Jets. Here is Truman with his autographs.

I went to church with the Jets when they visited my home-town in the Tri-Cities one year for a concert. I got to sit with them in class as well as Relief Society and talk with them. They're a great family and still sing wonderfully.
