Explanation

INTENDED USE OF ENDOWMENT FUNDS

SCHEDULE D, PART V, LINE 4 THE USO's ENDOWMENTS INCLUDE THOSE ASSETS OF DONOR-RESTRICTED FUNDS THAT THE USO MUST HOLD IN PERPETUITY AS DIRECTED BY DONORS. THE USO HAS ADOPTED INVESTMENT AND SPENDING POLICIES DESIGNED TO PROVIDE A STREAM OF RETURNS TO BE UTILIZED TO FUND VARIOUS PROGRAMS WHILE SEEKING TO MAINTAIN THE PURCHASING POWER OF THE ENDOWMENT ASSETS.

INCOME TAXES

SCHEDULE D, PART X, LINE 2 US GAAP requires that an income tax position be recognized or derecognized based on a "more likely than not" threshold. USO follows guidance that clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, including issues relating to financial statement recognition and measurement. This guidance provides that the tax effects from an uncertain tax position can only be recognized in the financial statements if the position is "more-likely-than-not" to be sustained if the position were to be challenged by a taxing authority. The assessment of the tax position is based solely on the technical merits of the position, without regard to the likelihood that the tax position may be challenged. The tax years ending December 31, 2018, 2017, 2016 and 2015 are still open to audit for both federal and state purposes. USO has determined that there are no material uncertain tax positions that require recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.

PROGRAM SERVICES	USO CENTERS FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A The USO provides programs, entertainment and services at more than 230 locations worldwide, including more than 100 USO owned and operated locations, and more than 90 chartered USO affiliate locations. USO operations are located throughout the United States (including the U.S. territory of Guam), and in countries overseas, including Afghanistan, Australia, Djibouti, Germany, Italy, Iraq, Japan, Korea, Kuwait, Qatar, Spain, Turkey, and United Arab Emirates. USO operates in airports, on and near military bases, and in combat and hardship zones. Most USO locations operate out of space that is provided for free or at greatly reduced rent, enabling the USO to save on critical operating expenses. In 2018, USO served visitors and program participants more than 11 million times (including serving visitors and program participants 3.9 million times through its chartered USO affiliates). The USO's centers provide a warm and comforting place where service members can connect with loved ones back home via internet or telephone, play a video game, catch a movie, have a snack or just put their feet up and relax. In 2018, the USO celebrated the opening of several new locations including Fort Stewart, Ga.; Ellington Field Joint Reserve Base, Texas; Coast Guard Station Fort Myers Beach, Fla.; Camp Humphreys, Korea; Al Asad, Iraq; undisclosed location, Qatar; Fort Jackson MEPS, S.C.; Raleigh MEPS, N.C.; and Sacramento MEPS, California. The USO partners with its affiliate, USO of Metropolitan Washington-Baltimore, to operate two USO warrior and family centers adjacent to major military hospitals in Bethesda, MD, and Fort Belvoir, VA to support wounded, ill, and injured service members, their family members, caregivers, and hospital staff at each installation. These facilities provide a relaxing, home-like atmosphere for respite and participation in recreational programs, including art therapy rooms, healing gardens, sports lounges, music rooms, classroom training facilities, and kitchens. USO also offers service members support through its mobile vehicle units. These large mobile centers travel to events and military exercises to provide places for service members to relax during downtime, provide USO services to areas without a brick-and-mortar USO centers and support communities in times of crisis. In 2018, the USO expanded the mobile fleet operation to include two new Sprinter vans designed to provide support to smaller exercises and events. The Sprinter vans are stationed in California with one stationed exclusively in San Diego, California, providing support to communities with large military populations and geographic limitations. During 2018, the USOs mobile fleet provided support to service members responding to Hurricanes Florence and Michael.
PUBLIC AWARENESS & OUTREACH	FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4B The USOs communications and outreach programs aim to address the civilian-military drift a natural disconnect and lack of understanding between those who have served in the military and those whom they defend who have never served and may not know or be related to anyone who has. During 2018, the USO continued the Force Behind the Forces, a brand awareness campaign reintroducing the USO to the American public, and encouraging Americans to stand behind the force, as a community of supporters committed to connecting service members to the things that they hold dear and demonstrate appreciation of those who selflessly serve our nation. The multi-channel campaign generated more than 2 billion Public Service Announcement impressions, 58 million social media impressions, and 34 billion earned media impressions. Through its website and mail, the USO collected 1.85 million messages of appreciation from the American public which are being distributed or displayed at USO locations across the globe.
EXPEDITIONARY AND MILITARY FAMILY PROGRAMS	FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4C USO's expeditionary and military family programs provide support and comfort to service members and their families, whether they are deployed, transitioning from their service, wounded, ill or injured, or have made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. Expeditionary Support The USO distributed 136 bundles of electronic gaming, sports/musical equipment, and personal care items to deployed service members in remote locations in 2018. The USO Care Package Program distributed more than 120,000 snack or toiletry packs to service members across the globe. The USO has continued to offer seasonal holiday care packages, which include decorations, snacks, DVDs and games to help service members stationed in remote corners of the world celebrate American holidays. In 2018, the USO shipped 720 seasonal holiday care packages to help keep our deployed service members connected to home. Operation Phone Home In addition, the USO provided a private phone network that allowed service members to make free calls home, computers with high-speed internet bandwidth, free internet access for service members' own computers and provided more than 100,000 free international prepaid calling cards to allow service members to connect with their families. In Southwest Asia alone, more than 3.8 million minutes were logged in free talk time and approximately 750,000 in free wi-fi sessions were logged. In other places around the world, many USO locations also offer free internet and free phone calls. Military Families Through a partnership with the What to Expect Foundation, the USO hosted 58 events for military moms-to-be and around the globe in 2018. The USO also connects military parents with their children back home by hosting a nationally recognized reading program at select USO centers worldwide that allows service members to record themselves reading a story aloud to their child, which the USO then mails back home. During 2018, the USO connected military families an estimated 43,000 times around the world through reading. The USO EmPaCt program is designed to engage the entire family, flipping traditional family dynamics and empowers military kids to lead the outcomes of their familys experience. During an EmPaCt event, families play games together, connect over shared experiences and then tackle a fun, problem-solving activity using cardboard, recycled goods and creativity. Families are encouraged to reflect on their EmPaCt experience and continue infusing the playful and positive problem-solving skills they have developed into a healthy, resiliency-building habit. The program held 9 events serving more than 200 service members and their families. The USO has created a new, family-oriented 'care package' program designed to afford military families a connective experience, whether participating in family-engagement events at USO centers or at home around their own table. The box is customized with targeted comfort products and includes family craft activities that reinforce proven resiliency habits such as managing emotions, understanding expectations or overcoming challenges. Each family box is assembled by hand by USO volunteers and staff and customized for up to six family members, with more than one box provided to support larger families. Due to the personalized assembly, the program is currently available by request only through centers participating in the program. The USO distributed more than 350 boxes during 2018. The USO also executed 119 Military Spouse Networking Events and Coffee Connections, which helped connect Military Spouses to their local community, social and professional networks. During 2018, the USO had 3,922 military spouses participate in these events. In 2018, the USO conducted extensive, worldwide research to produce the USO Military Spouse Report, which gave a voice to military spouses of all backgrounds and explored both the demographics and the challenges facing military spouses today. Military Couples Seminars and Events The USO, in collaboration with Stronger Families, offers seminars and similar events to help couples learn to improve their communication, better understand each other's needs, resolve conflict, rekindle romance and find renewed hope. In 2018, more than 5,900 military attendees benefitted from 165 OXYGEN live learning events held across the country and through online support subscriptions. Families of the Fallen The USO has supported every dignified transfer at Dover Air Force Base since March 1991, including over 85 dignified transfers in 2018. The USO is located in the heart of Dover Air Force base to support families of the fallen, as well as those service members assigned to the air force mortuary affairs complex. Additionally, as family notifications occur at all times of the day and night, the USO works 24/7 to coordinate among USO locations across the country. The USO is there to support and comfort families who have just received tragic news as they travel to and from Dover Air Force Base. In 2018, the USO supported over 298 family members traveling to and from Dover.
ENTERTAINMENT TOURS	FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4D USO entertainment tours feature celebrities, performers and engaging shows to keep service members and military family members connected to family, home and country. In 2018, the USO deployed 96 celebrity entertainers, who graciously donated millions of dollars' worth of their professional services and their time to participate in 41 tours to 19 countries and 25 states, entertaining more than 88,000 service members and military family members. Eight of these tours were to combat zones.
TRANSITION SERVICES	Form 990, Part III, Line 4d USO PATHFINDER The Pathfinder program extends the USO experience to service members and military spouses as they transition from the military and settle into their new communities. The program also supports military spouses at any point in their military journey as they transition from one installation to the next. At the end of 2018, the USO had 19 Pathfinder Sites across the United States. The USO Pathfinder programs approach includes: Personalized service: The USO Pathfinder mission is delivered by Scouts, USO staff who have a deep knowledge of and connection to the vast ecosystem of services and opportunities available to transitioning service members and military spouses. Scouts work one-on-one with individuals to create an Action Plan a customized road map that helps individuals stay on track and get connected with the best resources for them throughout their transition. Pathfinder Scouts maintain communication with individuals throughout their transition to confirm the quality of service being provided by the resources they are connected to and collaborate with them to update their Action Plan if their goals or destination change. Continuity of care: Scouts support service and family members 12 months before their transition and ensure continuity of care by extending support up to 12 months beyond the service members date of separation. Scouts also support military spouses throughout the many transitions they face during their family's time in service. Scouts connect individuals to resources and opportunities at their current duty station before they separate, as well as to resources where they choose to call home, regardless of where that may be. A holistic approach: Transition impacts every aspect of a service member and military family's life. Scouts provide support in the following focus areas: employment, education, veterans benefits, financial readiness, housing, legal, family strength and wellness, and volunteerism. A nationwide network of networks: The USO Pathfinder program works with public and private resources across the nation that offer relevant services to transitioning service members and military spouses. Scouts inform, prepare, and connect individuals with the local, national, in-person and virtual resources that best suit their specific timeline, location and goals. Powerful technology: The USOs digital Action Plan puts comprehensive transition services directly into the hands of service members and military spouses.
