Michael W. Smith Embarks on First-Ever USO Tour

Michael W. Smith is visiting the Caribbean nation of Guantanamo Bay, Cuba on his first-ever USO/Armed Forces Entertainment tour from August 5-7.

Smith will perform a selection of his hits during a USO show, visit posts and sign autographs. His songwriting titles “Heroes” and “The Patriot” are about servicemen and women.

Last year, Smith joined the Holiday Mail for Heroes campaign, which sent messages to troops downrange, and participated in Sean Hannity’s Holiday Salute to the Troops concert alongside combat-decorated Oliver North and John Ondrasik.

“Our nation’s troops and military families are among the bravest and most selfless people I know and we, as a nation, owe them not only our respect and gratitude but also our time,” said Smith.
