Robin Williams was a natural fit for the USO, with a magical ability to connect with every service member he met – he shook every hand, signed every autograph and lifted every spirit.
For 12 years, Robin generously gave his time to create special moments for more than 89,000 servicemen and women. His humor helped ease their loneliness, fear and uncertainty while they served to protect our freedom in remote locations far from home.
Everyone who met Robin has a special memory, and we want to share some of the amazing photos and stories from his USO tours.
Click here to see the USO’s tribute to Robin Williams, “He Brought Them Light,” and learn more about his dedication to our men and women in uniform.
The USO holds Robin Williams and his family in our hearts, and we thank him for all he did for those that do so much for all of us – the men and women of our Armed Forces. He will always be a part of our USO family and will be sorely missed.
Thank you,
Brigadier General John I. Pray Jr., USAF (Ret.)
Executive Vice President and Chief of Staff, USO
