A couple of weeks ago my Grandpa got to go on the Honor Flight from St. Louis to Washington D.C. This is an amazing program that takes veterans to D.C. to see the war memorials. It is an all-inclusive one-day trip for the veterans and open first to WWII veterans and then other veterans based availability.
My grandpa had the time of his life and said the overall experience was one of the most impressive things he’s ever been a part of. That’s a pretty big statement for an 88-year-old. If you know any WWII veterans who have not done this, I definitely think you should have them look into it and sign up. Just hearing my grandpa talk about it brightened my month.
