美國「福特號」航母編隊在中東。 The USS Gerald R. Ford - CVN 78 is once again underway in support of operations in the Middle East, another chapter in what has been a sustained, high operational tempo over the past several years. Behind every headline are sailors, many in their early 20s, standing watch in one of the most demanding environments in the world. Long hours on the flight deck. Extended time at sea. Missed moments at home. Unwavering commitment to mission. Aboard the USS Ford, the USO is the ONLY nonprofit with a permanent Center on the ship, providing a dedicated space where sailors can decompress, connect with loved ones, and recharge before the next watch. When the mission shifts, they adapt. When the pressure rises, they stand ready. And every nautical mile along the way, the USO stands with them.
