It (the Mobile USO) really helped our service members to realize the support that is out there for them. I think sometimes the National Guard doesn’t realize the services available to the active duty military are also available to them. Thank you again for this opportunity.

In Sept. 2007, the West Coast Mobile USO brought the USO’s mission to bases and events ranging from Camp Williams, Utah, to San Diego, Calif. The crew was able to serve 13,200 service men and women and drum-up support for active duty military amongst more than 85,000 participants.
