MCLEAN, Va., Jan. 16, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC) (NYSE: SAI) has been recognized by the USO of Metropolitan Washington (USO-Metro) as a multi-year 'Center Sponsor' in support of the operation of the USO Center at Fort George G. Meade military installation.  SAIC will also be inducted into the new center's 'Founders Circle'. 

The USO Fort Meade Center will help meet the needs of the growing population of military members and their families in the Maryland region.  USO-Metro serves more than 500,000 troops and their families living in the Washington-Baltimore region, and the new Fort Meade USO Center will be the largest located on a military installation in Maryland. USO Centers provide a "home-away-from-home" for military service members and their families by delivering a sense of community and comfort in addition to a host of activities, special events and recreation. 

"SAIC recognizes the many great services USO delivers to military personnel and their families," said Paul Gentile, SAIC senior vice president for Intelligence Systems. "We're incredibly proud to sponsor the USO Fort Meade Center in support of the expanding military presence in the Washington-Baltimore area."

"We're so thankful to SAIC for their extremely generous donation toward the building of this much needed USO Center at Fort Meade," said Elaine Rogers, President and CEO of USO-Metro.  "SAIC's support was critical to the successful launch of the USO Center where we'll provide programs and services to help lift the spirits of our troops and their families living in the Maryland region.  We know this Center is going to make a huge difference in the lives of our military members and their families, and we simply couldn't have built it without SAIC."
