What Is Honor Flight?

Honor Flight South Florida is a 100% all-volunteer organization, dedicated solely to honoring all veterans in Broward, Dade, and Monroe counties.  In the final chapters of their lives, it’s a race against time to fly these veterans to Washington D.C. to visit and reflect at the memorials built in their honor.  Top priority is given to our most senior defenders of freedom, World War II and Korean War veterans, and those veterans who are terminally ill. We are now serving Cold War and Vietnam Veterans.  Every one of these veterans fly absolutely free.

The veteran’s one-day mission to Washington D.C. includes round-trip airfare, deluxe bus transportation throughout Washington with police escorts, meals, commemorative tee shirts, and other amenities needed to travel comfortably.  Disabled veterans are also welcome; with advance arrangements, honor chairs and oxygen are available.

To begin with I was in total awe at the airport upon our return from DC. I must thank Arlene Frankel as well as Andrea. Arlene, you put it all together. 50 plus years ago all of us who wore the uniform were called “baby killers” and spat upon. The Honor Flight reception was like stepping into a new world… Read More “Gilbert Lenchu”
