- By Paul Howell
On Thursday, Sep. 12, 2013, a group of 85 WWII veterans departed from Greenville-Spartanburg International Airport to Washington, D.C., on the eleventh Honor Flight from Upstate South Carolina. The group, accompanied by one hundred guardians, doctors, nurses, support staff, and media visited the World War II, Vietnam, Korean and Marine Corps War Memorials. This flight marked the 300th nationwide for US Airways, the original charter for Honor Flight. Additional highlights for this trip included the largest number of African American veterans and female veterans that HFU has taken to date on any single flight; a guardian who was held captive in Vietnam, and suffered the POW camp as one of the longest-held captives; a WWII veteran who is a retired General and served as a pilot; and multiple stories from each of the honorees that we hope will be told in the weeks ahead to family, friends and congregations.
