"And all the money is donated. No government bureaucrats in sight, which is probably why the USO has lasted so long."-Yup, that's the key.
 
"The box costs about $5,000 each. The trailer about $100,000."-If the Pentagon had had to provide these, certain Senators and Congressmen would have smelled PORK.  For the taxpayer, you could probably then add a zero to these quoted prices.

"Blackwater USA, for example, was the principal sponsor of "USO In A Box."-Ah, The Evil Blackwater, the firm that, along with Halliburton, all good anti-war "progressives" love to hate.  I wonder how many Hollywood sponsors there have been??? Between Zero and any number other than Zero, I'd bet on Zero.
