Trace Adkins Honored To Be On Another USO Tour

Trace Adkins is overseas visiting U.S. troops. In the first two days of his current USO Tour, the singer has met with more than six-thousand members of the military at Camp Arifjan and Contingency Operating Base Basra. Adkins is expected to spend a week in combat zones, and he's more than happy to make the trip. He explains, quote, "Traveling on USO tours and visiting our nation's troops has been awe-inspiring and even overwhelming at times. Whether I'm walking around a post shaking hands and signing autographs or performing for troops, I am always aware I am in the presence of heroes, and the courage and determination that those men and women show is humbling. It's an honor to get to do that and I will always jump at the chance to do it for years to come." Adkins will wrap up his USO Tour in the U.S., performing a special concert for soldiers and their families at Fort Benning, Georgia.
