“Are you ready to ROCK?!”
Your participation and support will help Midwest Honor Flight fly our WWII, Korean, and Vietnam Veterans as well as any terminally ill Veterans out to Washington, D.C. to visit and reflect at the memorials dedicated to their service and that of their fellow comrades. This trip is simply a small token of our appreciation for everything they've done. Throughout their Midwest Honor Flight tour, the Veterans are thanked, recognized and admired for their service. They come home personally knowing how much their country loves them and respects them. Veterans will never forget this gratitude and adoration.
