Honor Flight Reception
Approximately 50 World War II Veterans, men and women, who have
flown to Washington DC on the Honor Flight Program were proudly
wearing their black and gold t-shirts reading World War II Honor
Flight – Tennessee Valley. The stories they told of their
experience at the World War II Monument in Washington DC gave me
and everyone there such an emotional & proud feeling.
