A Nevada nonprofit organization recently escorted a group of local veterans on a memorable trip to Washington, D.C., allowing them to visit the memorials dedicated to their service. The veterans, including those from World War II, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War, had the opportunity to pay their respects at various national monuments. The trip was organized by Honor Flight Southern Nevada, a nonprofit dedicated to honoring veterans by facilitating visits to the nation’s capital. These excursions are fully funded by community donations, ensuring that veterans can experience the memorials without any personal cost. The organization continues to prioritize World War II veterans and those with terminal illnesses, recognizing the importance of these visits as the veteran population ages. Honor Flight Southern Nevada operates in Las Vegas, Henderson, Boulder City, and surrounding areas, underscoring the community’s commitment to honoring its veterans. (veterans.nv.gov)
