Honor Flight is a national non-profit organization that honors America’s veterans for all their sacrifices by transporting them to Washington, DC to visit the various memorials dedicated to their service, as well as Arlington National Cemetery. These flights are done throughout the year and all over the country. The Honor Flight staff, volunteers and veterans from World War II, Korea and Vietnam make this trip to DC and back to their home city all in one day!
Although my husband and I could not go to DC with them, we did have the honor of welcoming these men and women home from one of the Central Florida Honor Flights last October. The majority of the vets that we welcomed home that night served during World War II, however, we did see one gentleman that had a hat indicating that he served in WWII, Korea and Vietnam, truly a dedicated serviceman!
