“This has been the most meaningful day of my life,” said one veteran. At the time, he was 100 years old. Honor Flight had brought him to the World War II Memorial in Washington D.C. He had been chosen by the group to lay the wreath on the memorial to honor those lives that had been lost. Many were moved to tears by the mixture of emotions.
Mission of Honor Flight
The mission of Honor Flight is to transport America’s veterans to Washington, D.C. to visit the memorials dedicated to honoring those who have served and sacrificed for our country.
National Network
The Honor Flight Network is a national network of independent Hubs working together to honor our nation’s veterans with an all-expenses paid trip to the memorials in Washington, D.C., a trip many of our veterans may not otherwise be able to take. Participation in an Honor Flight trip gives veterans the chance to share this momentous trip with other veterans, to remember friends and comrades lost, and share their stories and experiences with each other.
