Dear USO Supporter,

In recent months, with global tensions rising quickly, Soldiers have been deployed far from home, including to the Middle East. The days are long, the conditions are challenging and the distance from family can feel overwhelming.

In places like these, the USO shows up with what service members need most: connection to home, a steady presence and a reminder that the country they serve still remembers them.

One Soldier told us that after weeks in harsh training conditions, USO volunteers were there waiting with simple comforts — coffee, food and a reminder that someone cared. After more than 30 days with only MREs to eat, she said, "It made us very happy."

Moments like that are why every message of support matters and why reaching our goal of 250,000 signatures on the Army birthday card is so important.

Adding your name only takes a second, but to a Soldier serving far away, it can be a huge morale boost.
