Our Mission

To celebrate America’s veterans by inviting them to share in a day of honor at our nation’s memorials.

Our Vision

A nation where all of America’s veterans experience the honor, gratitude and community of support they deserve.

We are forever grateful for the sacrifices of our veterans. We can give back in a small way with honoring them on one more mission — taking them to see the memorials in Washington DC. It is a trip that will impact them and the guardians alike. We are so excited to see the Triad involved in this worthy cause. Check out ways you can become involved as an honored veteran, a guardian or volunteer. It will take an Army!

Memories Made

His Greatest Day Was This Flight

I wanted to let you know that my Dad (David Eckrote) passed way late Friday night after a battle with heart failure. One of his greatest days was this Flight of Honor trip. During his last day when he was in and out of it, he randomly said “there were 186 people on that flight!” Not sure if those numbers are correct but I knew he was in a happy place thinking about being honored in such an appropriate way. We were so blessed to be able to be a part of it, and I treasure that time I had with him.

Most Memorable Days of His Life

An old veteran can only guess at what awaits him when he appears at the opening ceremony of the Honor Flight. Kindred spirits, accompanied by their guardians, start to shed tears when the pipes begin to wail and the flag passes over them. Touring Washington DC with the police escorts and treatment everywhere as honored guests was overwhelming. I was especially blessed to be accompanied by my son and daughter. We three will never forget.

Honor Flight Impact On Me

On April 17th, 2018, I surprised my father in DC when he arrived for his Honor Flight. It was a day that will forever change me. My Dad served in the Army during the Cold War in communications and Russian intelligence. Being part of the Honor Flight gave me a whole new perspective on our veterans. It was a day filled with compassion and tears. I’m so grateful to now be part of bringing this honor to the veterans of the Triad.

Most Memorable Days of His Life

In 2012 my father, a WWII Navy Veteran, flew to Washington DC from Chicago with Honor Flight. It was one of the most memorable days of his life. I would like to thank Jeff Miller and Earl Morse who made their dream a reality for thousands of veterans. Many thanks to the thousands of volunteers who donate time to make sure our veterans are safe and well cared for on their honor flights.

Most Memorable Days of His Life

My Father Charles Lawson joined the Naval Air Force at the age of 17 as a parachute rigger with the fighting VF-17 casu unit. He was sent to Corpus Cristi, TX for chute school training, Blinker (morse code) and completed his first jump and graduation there. He received further training in Nevada before being his being assigned with the group. As a tribute My Father was able to take a veteran’s Honor Flight with the Melbourne, Florida Space Coast Honor Flight. It changed my father’s life to see all of the monuments at the capital and changing of the guard.
