New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees and tight end Billy Miller are scheduled to team up again with former Kansas City Chiefs and San Diego Chargers linebacker Donnie Edwards for an upcoming USO/Armed Forces Entertainment tour to Turkey, Djibouti and the Persian Gulf. They will visit with the troops stationed there to talk with them, sign autographs and pose for photos.
This will be the fifth USO Tour for Brees and the third for Miller. The trio traveled together to Japan in 2008 and to Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, last year. Brees and Edwards went to Kuwait and the United Arab Emirates in 2007.

Mike,
I am a part of the Iraq Chapter of Who Dat Nation, currently deployed to Iraq. I have been reading about Drew Brees heading out on another USO Tour. I would love to get his autograph and a picture during his tour. Do you know if he will be touring in Iraq? As great as it was to see our Saints win the Super Bowl, I was a little disappointed that I was in Iraq and not at home enjoying the moment with friends and family.
