I am the Chaplin the American Legion Post 775 in Loomis California. We have several World War II Veterans who served in 442nd and are past Post Commanders. They attend our functions when they are able. I would like to investigate the next flight from San Francisco and the cost as I have a company who I think will help with sponsorship.
Was doing a bit of research on my dad's ship, LSM 418 and ran across this site. Wanted to say HI to Charles (Frank) Groeber and any other Navymen that knew my dad, Ross Mallen. I have a photo album he created with many pictures of the ship, his mates and even the bike and dog! Also he recorded all crew names/addresses as of 31 Aug 1945.

This is such a great program! I had the pleasure to meet a group of the WW II Veterans on their flight back to SFO last year. I was their flight attendant and they were the best bunch of passengers I have ever had! The most amazing people and best story tellers! Thank you Honor Flight Northern California for working so hard and giving so much!

As you can see, I am a Vietnam Era veteran and an American Legion Post 51 member in Whittier, California. I am interested in obtaining more information about Honor Flight as we have a few WWII veterans who are interested in viewing the WWII Memorial in Wash. D.C. under your program. I became aware of your program through my employer the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission and our Veteran's Committee. Senator Robert Dole was a speaker at one of our meetings and mentioned your organization which interest me in assisting our WWII veterans. I am also interested in becoming a volunteer guardian and would like information on that. I would appreciate your feedback. Thank You.
