On September 2, 2007, the Mobile USO provided services for the 131st Air Wing Family Day Picnic, serving hamburgers, brats, hot dogs, popcorn and snow cones all day.
The
Mobile USO enables the USO to take the support on the road
to meet the troops and families where they live. The unit
travels around the state of Missouri and Southern Illinois
to support the troops at deployment and welcome home parties,
training exercises, community festivals and USO special events.
The mobile unit features three full size serving windows;
all stainless steel interior; grills, griddles, ovens and
a 50" Flat Screen Plasma TV.
The
purchase of this Mobile USO was made possible through the
generosity of the Dennis Jones Family Foundation. Other corporate
sponsors include Emerson, Enterprise Rent-A-Car, Boeing and
Willert Home Products.
