I caught some information about Honor Flight on a news clip.
Thank you, and those like you... who honor the men and women of our armed services that gave so much, and continue to give. Silently they ware the infirmities received for our freedom! Most are willing to talk to us (even when the memories are painful), if we will take the time to listen. Their example serves a "high bar" they hope no one has to jump over, but they'd be willing to do it again for you and I.
God Bless you, our Vets, and God Bless the USA.

I am the daughter of a Marine Corp. WWII (flight instructor) who passed away several years ago. He never got to see the D. C. Memorial. My uncle who is now 84 (Army--Pacific) might like to go and I'm doing what I can to make that happen for him.

I've been keeping up to date on your chapter through my brother Richard. I'm so looking forward to watching your site and your Chapter grow. Also looking forward to helping any way I can, either here in Southern Oregon, or as a guardian. This is a fantastic program and a great tribute to our Veterans. My family donated to the memorial in honor of my Father. Just wish he could have seen it completed. He was so proud to have served, and we are all so proud and grateful to him and his fellow servicemen. Thank you all for making this possible.
