Tomorrow, Tuesday, October 16, 2012, will be our final flight for the fall season. We will be taking 26 WWII veterans to see the WWII Memorial in Washington, DC. Accompanying them will be 22 guardians, among them Scott Murray and several sons, daughters, grandsons, and granddaughters! Among our veterans are 2 Iwo Jima survivors, Battle of the Bulge survivors, and Purple Heart recipients! What an honor to be able to thank these heroes of the Greatest Generation!
Our itinerary includes the WWII Memorial, the Korea and Vietnam Memorials, the FDR Memorial, the Iwo Jima Monument, Arlington National Cemetery for the Changing of the Guard, and the Air Force Memorial.
Thanks goes to American Airlines for their support and for providing volunteer medical personnel! Special thanks to Toni Russell from the Veterans Initiatives Department! You are awesome!
