CAMP CASEY, South Korea \u2013 Military service members and civilians stationed in Area I welcomed the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders to the Republic of Korea during the USO\u2019s 85th tour, South Korea, Feb. 25 and 26.<\/p>\n

South Korea was special for the cheerleaders because it was the first country they visited when they started touring with the USO in 1979. \u201cAmerica\u2019s Sweethearts\u201d signed autographs, met with troops, learned about U.S. military history in Korea, and became familiar with Soldier life during the Korea-wide tour; which also included several activities on Camp Walker in Daegu and Camp Humphreys in Pyeongtaek earlier in the week.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are excited to continue the 44-year partnership with the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders touring South Korea, the site of the first Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders tour in 1979,\u201d said Jennifer Wahlquist, Vice President of the USO\u2019s Global Entertainment Division.<\/p>\n

Military service members and their families were treated to a world-class performance on each installation, which concluded with audience members receiving signed autographs and getting to take pictures with the cheerleaders.<\/p>\n

One highlight of this year\u2019s tour included a trip to Camp Bonifas, a United Nations Command military post located just 400 meters from the southern boundary of the Republic of Korea\u2019s Demilitarized Zone.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis tour allows us to show those on the front lines of freedom how much their service and sacrifice means to us back home. We are honored to be able to help strengthen the well-being of those serving in our military and their families in Korea where service members are either separated from their families, or, if accompanied, are a long way from home,\u201d said Wahlquist.<\/p>\n

The cheer team received a briefing from UNC that highlighted the importance of maintaining a U.S. presence in the Republic of Korea, describing notable activity in the area since the armistice first went into effect in 1953.<\/p>\n

\u201cMost service members serving in Area I and II are on what\u2019s known as a hardship tour,\u201d said Stanley James, the U.S. Army Garrison Yongsan-Casey acting public affairs director. \u201cThis means that they are unaccompanied, without their families. Events like this that boost morale were truly appreciated by everyone who got to meet and interact with the cheerleaders during their visit.\u201d<\/p>\n

Additional highlights from the Camp Casey tour included the cheerleaders signing a commemorative poster at Camp Casey\u2019s USO to hang next to one autographed by their predecessors. The ladies were also treated to an authentic Soldier breakfast at Casey Main and Thunder Dining Facility on Feb. 26 before meeting military healthcare professionals at the Troop Medical Center.<\/p>\n

The team supports various tours around the globe annually, showing their continued support for our troops.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
