Cardinals Trey McBride, DeeJay Dallas take part in NFL's USO Poland tour

NEW YORK -- Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride and running back DeeJay Dallas participated in a National Football League – United Service Organizations (USO) tour from April 2-5 to visit U.S. service members at six military bases in Poland.

Each year as part of the NFL's Salute to Service initiative, the league collaborates with the USO to connect select NFL players with U.S. service members and their families at military bases across the globe, providing them with the opportunity to meet our nation's heroes and experience a day in their lives.

During this year's tour, Trey McBride and DeeJay Dallas interacted with service members to learn about their roles in the military and received mission briefs from senior leaders on their mission in Poland. They also observed military equipment demonstrations, participated in an Army combat fitness test, and joined in on a Madden gaming tournament with service members – all while conducting meet and greets and sharing meals with service members. The players also had a unique opportunity to meet with service members from the Arizona National Guard, who are ardent Arizona Cardinals fans.

"We are privileged to have once again participated in another meaningful tour with the USO to visit and honor our nation's service members stationed on the frontlines in Poland," said NFL Senior Vice President of Social Responsibility Anna Isaacson. "The NFL continues to support the military year-round through our Salute to Service initiative, and we are proud to facilitate opportunities for players to meet service members and thank them for the incredible sacrifices they've made to protect our freedom."

For nearly 60 years, the NFL and the USO have partnered to bring NFL players to military bases
