Soldiers’, Sailors’, Marines’, Coast Guard, and Airmen’s Club, a long-time interest of the National Society.

_PATRIOTIC PROJECTS
USO. Members’ work with and financial support of the U.S.O. originated in San Francisco to serve the many troops going to and returning from Vietnam and even today remains focused on the U.S.O clubs. Recognition of the need to support the overseas U.S.O. clubs used by American servicemen prompted the National Society to broaden its interest in clubs based in Europe and the Far East.
Veteran’s Hospitals. Work of the Veterans Hospital Committee is nationwide and reflects the members’ gratitude to and interest in those veterans who require short- or long-term care. Service and financial assistance are National goals.
