The purpose of the USO Tour was to boost the morale and bring a touch of home to the American Armed Forces fighting for our country.
"I've had a lot of memorable experiences in my life," Shula said. "This ranks right up there because of the gravity of what our young people are asked to do, putting their lives on the line for our country."
Coach Shula joined by his wife Mary Anne and other notables, were all led by Admiral Mike Mullen, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, to the different locations where soldiers are stationed. Hundred of soldiers lined up and were delighted that the stars could break away from their busy schedules to visit them. Shula shared his most memorable moments with the troops as they were eager for a glimpse of his Super Bowl ring & to get his autograph.
