USO centers offer service members and their families a place to rest, grab a cold drink, check e-mail, search the Internet, play videogames, watch TV and much more. Travel assistance, family counseling, support groups and childcare nursery are also available in most USO centers. Today the USO delivers its programs and services to 1.4 million active duty service members and 1.2 million National Guard and Reserves as well as their families at more than 130 centers located worldwide.
Below is a slideshow of a few of our USO centers.

USO ...Until Every One Comes Home
For 67 years, the USO has been providing morale-boosting programs and services to enhance the quality of life for military personnel and their families around the world.
The USO is a private, nonprofit organization whose mission is to provide morale, welfare and recreation-type services to our men and women in uniform. The original intent of Congress – and enduring style of USO delivery – is to represent the American people by extending a touch of home to the military. The USO currently operates more than 130 centers worldwide, including ten mobile canteens located in the continental United States and overseas. Overseas centers are located in Germany, Italy, the United Arab Emirates, Iceland, Japan, Qatar, Korea, Afghanistan, Guam, and Kuwait. Service members and their families visit USO centers more than 5.6 million times each year.
Historically, few events have left a more lasting emotional impression on service members and their families than USO celebrity entertainment tours. Since the USO’s inception in 1941, thousands of celebrities have boosted the morale of troops in times of peace and war.
