Visits occurred on Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling and the Marine Corps Barracks Washington in Southeast Washington, D.C.; Joint Base Myer-Henderson Hall and Marine Corps Base Quantico in Virginia; and Fort Meade, Joint Base Andrews and Naval Station Activity Bethesda. WWE’s Chief Brand Officer Stephanie McMahon and her husband, Triple H (Paul Levesque), laid a wreath on The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington Cemetery.
“We were so excited to partner with WWE on Tribute to the Troops, an event that truly has become a holiday tradition for our service members and their families,” says Elaine Rogers, president and CEO of USO-Metro. “What better way to thank our active duty military members and their families for their service than by providing them with an amazing day of fun and entertainment.”
The day culminated at the Verizon Center in Washington, D.C., for WWE’s Tribute to the Troops live show. USO-Metro distributed 7,000 complimentary tickets to active duty service members and their families.
Partners for more than 15 consecutive years, WWE and USO-Metro have worked together on countless events from celebrity handshake tours to local military hospitals with WWE Superstars and appearances at USO-Metro signature events, including Salute to Military Chefs and USO-Metro’s Annual Awards Dinner.
