Skype and the USO have teamed up to help military families stay close this holiday season. Service personnel visiting any Asia-Pacific USO Center can make free voice and video calls home to loved ones via Skype.
Virtual Holiday Dinners
Service members taking part in Thanksgiving Dinners at the Guam, Yokosuka and Camp Hansen USO centers will also be able to share a “virtual” Thanksgiving table with family in the United States via live Skype video calls.
Free Gifts
Even sweeter, troops will return home with free Skype holiday gift sets so they can continue making memories with their families after the holiday season is over. The gift sets include a headset, plus Skype calling credit or a Webcam and are available in limited quantities on a first come, first served basis.
