Veteran Application

Midwest Honor Flight recognizes American Veterans in NW Iowa, South Dakota, and SW Minnesota for your sacrifices and achievements by taking you to Washington, DC to see YOUR memorial at no cost to you. Top priority is given to WWII and terminally ill Veterans from all wars. Midwest Honor Flight has expanded to include Korean and Vietnam Veterans. For Midwest Honor Flight to achieve this goal, guardians fly with the Veterans on every flight providing assistance and helping Veterans have a safe, memorable, and rewarding experience. For what you and your comrades have given to us, please consider this a small token of appreciation from all of us at Midwest Honor Flight.

Guardian

Every Veteran on a Midwest Honor Flight must be accompanied by a guardian. This person will travel with you and make sure that your day is as safe and enjoyable as possible. Midwest Honor Flight has many qualified volunteers waiting for a chance to accompany you on the flight, so you do not need to find your own guardian. However, if you do have a preference for someone in particular, list them here and have them fill out an online Guardian Application within 48 hours. We need to know in advance in order to make the arrangements. Spouses and significant others are not allowed to serve as a Guardian due to National Honor Flight Network Policies. Guardians should be intellectually, physically, and emotionally capable of caring for their veteran. We reserve the right to refuse any guardian application.
