Honor Flight

This post has nothing to do with guns, but I would like to share an experience with you.

Yesterday I had one of the finest experience of my life my joining 69 other veterans on an Honor Flight. The average age was 84 and the oldest vet was 97. We visited all the memorials and watched the changing of the Guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. I will never forget the total experience and being in the company of wonderful people including the guardians. Every Veteran had a guardian and my daughter Julie was my Guardian. We had nine World War 2 Veterans on our flight and I have to say something about our Greatest Generation. I have always thought that if it wasn’t for George Washington and his citizens who became his Army, we would be having tea and crumpets instead of a beer at Happy Hour. They saved our Country. The Greatest Generation consisted of the men and women who served in the Armed Forces and who stayed at home keeping the factories running during World War 2. THEY SAVED THE WORLD! I hope some young people read this and think about the sacrifices made by other generations so they could have a great life. Maybe they will understand why people like me will never understand or do anything to support anyone who disrespects our COUNTRY.
