On February 24, Honor Flight Southern Nevada will host an Honor Flight Experience from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. The event will be held for the World War II and Korean War veterans who are unable to make the trip back to Washington, D.C. to visit their memorials.
The Honor Flight Experience will feature a luncheon and video tour of the memorials, followed by special presentations to the veterans, as well as an acknowledgement of the services each veteran has given to our country.
“I am heartened that we get to recognize those that are unable to see the memorials in person in Washington, D.C.,” said Belinda Morse, executive director of Honor Flight Southern Nevada. “We are honored to host this event and acknowledge those who served our great nation.”
The Honor Flight Experience luncheon is provided at no cost to the veterans. Each veteran will be able to bring one or two guests depending on space available.
Any veterans who are interested in this momentous event will need to complete an application to receive an invitation to attend. Applications are available on the Honor Flight Southern Nevada website (www.honorflightsouthernnevada.org) or by calling (702) 749-5912.
