About This Item
Hope's USO involvement was extensive and lasted over 50 years beginning with World War I. According to the Library of Congress Hope's shows included, "comedy monologs, specialty acts, celebrity appearances, dancers, singers, and skits." Combining his entertainment and vaudevillian roots with his patriotism he went overseas with a variety of troupes through the 1990s earning him "Honorary Veteran" status by President Clinton in 1997.
A modest but nice collection of U.S.O. show photographs taken by a soldier in the 1950s.
