Military Entrance Processing Station, Los Angeles

MEPS LA is the busiest in the nation, swearing-in 12,000 young Americans who go forth to protect and defend the constitution annually. It is the single largest volume facility in the nation, where nearly 5% of all military members start their service. Our doors at MEPS are open every weekday for the brave young men and women who stand, raise their right hand, and vow to protect and serve our nation. Our volunteers provide a stress-free USO center for enlisting service members to enjoy an assortment of games, snacks, beverages, and entertainment. We aim to educate them about the USO and its 200+ worldwide locations upon entry to the military. It is an honor to be there to support them and their families as they start on this new journey in their lives, and have the opportunity to teach them about the mission of the USO and how we will support them through their service.
