As someone whose brother served in the U.S. Navy, our sailors are particularly close to my heart. My brother served on the USS Durham for four years and was recognized with the Sea Service Deployment Ribbon, Southwest Asia Service Medal and National Defense Service Medal.

I’ve seen the sacrifices they make, from spending long months isolated at sea to missing holidays with their loved ones. That’s why I was so disappointed to see we fell short of our signature goal for the Navy’s birthday.

With just a few hours left until our extended deadline, I noticed you still haven’t added your name, so I wanted to personally reach out with one last reminder. Will you sign our Navy birthday card now to honor our sailors and all who serve?

Thank you,
Tabitha Glenn
Vice President, USO

Note: Thousands of National Guard and active-duty service members are currently responding to Hurricane Milton, while many are continuing their response efforts across the Southeast following Hurricane Helene.

Where they go, we go, and we will continue to support service members and their families during these crises.

On this day honoring the Navy, we hope you will join us in saying “thank you” to our sailors and all our brave service members.

YOU'VE BEEN SELECTED

SIGN THE U.S. NAVY’S 249TH
BIRTHDAY CARD!

DEADLINE: 11‌:59 P.M.

Tabitha,

As a top USO supporter, you’ve been personally selected to join us in honoring our heroes for the Navy’s 249th birthday today:

Honor those who serve in our Navy by signing the Navy's birthday thank-you card now.

Since Oct. 13, 1775, our brave sailors have faced some of the most demanding mental, physical and emotional challenges imaginable as they spend months away from home, isolated in remote parts of the world. The mental toll of long deployments, combined with the stress of their critical missions, can be profound.

On the Navy's birthday, these courageous service members deserve to be recognized and know that they have our deepest gratitude and support.

That's why we've set a goal to collect 50,000 signatures via email and text message from committed supporters like you on our birthday card for the U.S. Navy ahead of the midnight goal deadline:

Please, will you take just a moment now to add your name to our birthday card for the U.S. Navy to honor and show gratitude to our sailors?

Thank you so much for standing with the members of our Navy.
