Dear USO Supporter,

Today is the 84th anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor. It is still a day that lives in infamy for our nation.

There have been many stories told, books written and movies made about this day. As supporters of our service members, we recognize those who were killed, those who risked their lives to help, those who went off to war and the families affected by it all. Our nation owes them all a debt of gratitude.

Even though it was a dark time for America, it was not without hope. We banded together in support of our service members. We’re proud to say that the USO was part of this. Founded just months before the Pearl Harbor attack, USO volunteers rushed to the scene to help the service members who needed aid that day.

Since then, we’ve continued to deliver aid to our service members, helping them stay connected to home, feel cared for and have support throughout their military journey. That support is only possible because of patriots like you.

—The USO
