Honor Flight 618 Inc NFP has been set up for the Primary goal or mission, to help support local Honor Flights for our Veterans.
If you are familiar with The Honor Flight Program, you know that is a wonderful program that honors our Veterans in a very special way.
Honor Flight fills up a plane with Vets and their guardians (chaperones) and they fly off to Washington DC for a day that they won't forget.
Starting with Roll Call and Breakfast before the flight, upon arrival in DC they attend a welcoming reception, then visit multiple sites throughout the day. The sites include multiple war memorials, the Tomb of The Unknown Soldier, and more.
Upon their return home, the Vets are honored with a Welcome Home party with a reception, a band, and Mail call.
If you have never attended the return home reception at the airport, it is a truly special event that will bring a tear to your eye.
The secondary goal or mission of Honor Flight 618 is to assist veterans in any capacity.
