Friends Of Uso South Texas!

God Bless America and the supporters of USO South Texas! Our "Always Home! A Salute!" was a huge success. We are headed down a new path to build a stronger USO Family for the support for our troops here in the Coastal Bend and their families.

Larry Linde, USO South Texas President officially launched the three (3) WWII Treasures Scholarships named in honor of USO Emeritus Board Members, Maxine Flournoy, Grandis Lenken, and Texas Admiral Bill Sheka, Marine Fighter Pilot!!!

Juan Garcia, Assistant Secretary Of The Navy - Designate and his wife, Denise were on hand to honor our Military and our Treasures as USO South Texas moves forward in making waves to build on the future for our Military Families.

We were also thrilled to have Sloan Gibson, USO President and CEO of the entire World. This was Sloan's first visit to South Texas, he was happy to see the enthusiasm of the community and the Military...Look for more changes to come for our USO South Texas.

Our USO at NAVSTA Ingleside will be closing next year when BRAC officially closes the base September 2010. Through a partnership with the Navy we are able to continue serving our military until the gates are closed. The Port of Corpus Christi Authority is working with us as we move toward a new adventure. Hold on to your hats, open your hearts and continue to make good things happen for our Military Family!
