Sorry this is late but I just noticed it.

No, Orlando does NOT have a USO any longer.
I looked for it again back in 2003 and it was not in its normal place. So I wandered around (I was waiting for visitors to fly in) and found one of the information desks and asked them about it. They said that after the NTC closed, there was talk of no longer needing the USO. A year or so later they started a redo of the airport and USO was having a hard time getting volunteers, so they went ahead and closed it and did not plan on it for the new design.

It's a shame, those lounges are really handy when you are waiting around an airport and just want to relax for a little while.
