This is the second time actress Scarlett Johansson joined the USO holiday tour. She felt a special connection with our service men and women even though they are complete strangers. Just to hear their stories, she could feel their yearning to be home with their loved ones. Johansson expressed her gratitude, she said: “It’s a real gift to be able to come here and meet all of you and just let you guys know that we really appreciate what you do. I know a lot of you are obviously far from home, far away from your families, and we love you and we appreciate you.”
