Winding up a three-month tour in a 2023 Jeep® Willys to visit soldiers and their families on 25 military bases, the U.S. Patriot Bravery Tour team visits one last base before its mission is complete.
Lexington, KY (August 2023) – U.S. Patriot, a GALLS® company, and one of the largest military suppliers of uniforms, boots, and gear, make one last base stop before heading home to Kentucky at Fort Leonard Wood in Missouri on Aug. 5, 2023.
The USP 2023 Jeep® Wrangler Willys 4×4 has made the 25-military base, 6800-mile trip in a little over three months, and will be given away after the U.S. Patriot Bravery Tour winds up. This final event will be held at the Fort Leonard Wood base exchange at Bldg. 487 on 143 Replacement Avenue on Saturday, Aug. 5, 2023. The U.S. Patriot team will offer food, drink, promos, giveaways, and more. The event is open to all former and current military members and their families.
“The purpose of this tour is to meet our customers face-to-face, get to know our troops, and bring their voice directly into how we serve them better for their tactical gear needs.,” Mike Fadden, CEO of U.S. Patriot, said. “There is no better way to honor the bravery and sacrifice of the men and women who serve our country than to meet them in person, celebrate their stories and create a fun and memorable event they can enjoy with their families.”
The tour will be interactive, and the military service members will be encouraged to leave their unit’s memorabilia on the Jeep, making it one-of-its-kind by the end of the tour. At the conclusion of the tour, the Jeep will be given away through a sweepstake random drawing to one lucky winner. All active-duty military members, national guard members, reservists, military retirees, military veterans, and dependents of active-duty military members are eligible to enter the sweepstakes. No purchase is necessary.

About Fort Leonard Wood:
The post is named for Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood, a distinguished American Soldier whose service to his country spanned 40 years. A warrior and a surgeon, Wood graduated from Harvard University and began his military service as a contract surgeon during the Apache Indian Wars in the 1880s, winning the Medal of Honor for valor. At the outbreak of the Spanish-American War, Wood commanded the 1st U.S. Volunteer Cavalry, better known as the Rough Riders. His second in command, Theodore Roosevelt, took over the regiment when Wood was promoted.
Wood served as the Army’s Chief of Staff from 1910 to 1914. His last position of service was governor-general of the Philippine Islands, which Spain had ceded to the U.S. after the Spanish-American War. Wood held this position until he died in 1927.
Fort Leonard Wood is a thriving and prosperous installation that has evolved from a small basic training post more than 80 years ago to a premier Army Center of Excellence that trains nearly 80,000 military and civilians each year.
Home to the Maneuver Support Center of Excellence, Fort Leonard Wood now trains and educates service members and develops doctrine and capabilities for the Training and Doctrine Command’s U.S. Army Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear School, U.S. Army Engineer School, and U.S. Army Military Police School.
Fort Leonard Wood has received numerous additional responsibilities including supporting a colonel-commanded Marine Corps Detachment and an Air Force Squadron, which are both the largest on any Army installation, are located on Fort Leonard Wood; a large Navy Seabee Detachment and elements of the Coast Guard train here as well.
