WWII vets take trip of a lifetime
DYESS AIR FORCE BASE, Texas - Senior Airman Ryan Fowler, 77th Weapons Squadron, helps one of more than 200 World War II veterans through the Dulles International Airport in Chantilly, Va. April 12 as part of a West Texas Honor Flight Network event. The Honor Flight Network is a non-profit organization created to honor America’s veterans for their sacrifices by transporting these heroes to Washington D.C. to visit and reflect at their memorials at no cost to themselves. Honor Flight trips are made possible through donations; discounts by charter bus companies, airlines, hotels and more; and through volunteers, of which more than 100 were present during this West Texas Honor Flight.
