Veterans

Back in November I was in a D.C. airport waiting for my flight back to CO when an announcement was made that a group of WWII veterans would be landing shortly and would we please help welcome them. It was an awesome opportunity and I am so glad I was able to be there.




 In researching the reason for them being there I discovered "Honor Flights". Basically it is an organization trying to bring WWII veterans to D.C. to see their memorial free of charge. 

To read more about why they were there go to: http://www.honorflight.org/

Here is a link to an article on the Honor flight I got to 'see' go to : http://www.nationalmall.org/news/group-world-war-ii-veterans-take-honor-flight-milwaukee-dc
