Marvelous organization, there is a very interesting movie made about the Honor Flight we saw at the local theater a couple years ago.

My late Dad, a WWII Navy Veteran took the flight from Dallas, Texas about 10 years ago. When he got back, he talked and grinned non-stop for a week!

My father went a few years ago and truly enjoyed it!

My 95 year old Dad (and still going strong) went a few years ago - he’s a WWII veteran one-arm amputee and really liked it. He said it was a very humbling experience.....

Tom,
Sounds like meeting your Dad would be a very humbling experience. Tell him I said thank you!
And thank you too Don, and all veterans.

I was blessed to meet a gentleman and his wife the other day outside a restaurant here in Tucson, Arizona. They loved my "A" and he told us that he was nearing his 97th birthday. He had been a tail gunner for 35 missions in a B-17, shot down once and had to bail out over Spain.
These folks were heading home to San Diego after a visit with family. He was a sharp as a tack, still driving and shared how he was going to get an "Honor Ride" when he got back home.
These folks are a treasure and anytime you meet one you realize that in a few years they will all be gone. Still a few Korean vets around a good number of us Nam vets are still standing. It won't be long before we are the dwindling group.
Thank you to all and there families for their service, and God Bless! Chap
