Services for Families of the Fallen
As loved ones are faced with the loss of a family member, USO stands by their side, ready to provide support in the toughest of times. From a troop’s dignified transfer to their final resting place, USO offers assistance as they mourn and grieve the loss of their loved one.
Our caring USO staff and volunteers are prepared to provide assistance from our international airports to our centers, giving comfort and guidance. As families mourn, the USO aims to alleviate many of the logistical hurdles with free Internet, computer and telephone access so that families and friends may properly grieve and honor their fallen hero.
Please notify any of our airport centers for special assistance navigating the airport and any travel needs.
Our caring USO staff will meet with the families upon arrival at the airport to help alleviate the burdens of travel as the family mourns the loss of their fallen hero. Our USO staff will escort the family to their gates, to the USO lounge, provide airport and travel information, and will provide any other support that the family may need at that time.
