Events and Activities : Another Honor Flight for area veterans

Who has more fun than three bus loads of Eastern Iowa Honor Flight Veterans and Escorts???

NOBODY.

October 16,2013 was a memorable trip for many eastern Iowa Veterans. The government wasn't working but the staff of Honor Flight was and with the police escort traveled through Washington DC with ease.

A long day and many memories for all.

Our escorts, Chuck and Mike enjoyed taking us through the city as much as everyone enjoyed the VIP treatment.

All memorials we normally visit were opened for us or barricades were move to provide us access.

Please visit our Facebook page at Eastern Iowa Honor Flight for more pictures. Our web site is www.eihonorflight.org for applications and information. A reminder of our friends the Vinton Lions Club is sponsoring a chili supper on Nov 21 at the fire station in Vinton for future flight (the same night as our lighted parade).
