Veteran application

Your day of honor
starts here.

Honor Flight recognizes American veterans for your sacrifices and achievements by flying you to Washington, DC to see YOUR memorial at no cost. Top priority is given to WWII vets, Korean War vets, Vietnam War vets and terminally ill veterans from all wars.

In order for Honor Flight to achieve this goal, guardians fly with the veterans on every flight aiding and helping veterans have a safe, memorable and rewarding experience. Those guardians pay their own way, covering expenses currently at $600 per guardian.

For what you and your comrades have given to us, please consider this a small token of appreciation from all of us at Honor Flight. For more information, please call (864) 869.VETS (8387). Note: Honor Flight provides trained guardians for the day of the event.

If you know someone who would like to apply, please refer them to our Guardian Application. They will be screened before being offered the position of guardian.

A veteran's story

Bill Quinton

I just can’t put into words the way I felt yesterday and especially the reception at the airport. I cried from a feeling of pride and accomplishment. Ann and I have read the letters and notes from these wonderful young people. We were both in awe. The logistics of the flight were incredible. It was a perfect day for my son and me, something we will never forget. The beautiful poster pics at the end were amazing. You did an outstanding job and so did the entire crew. Thank for on behalf of all the veterans you have helped over the years. Again, thank you and the entire team for the wonderful memories and all the hard work.
