On October 19, 2009, 90 World War II veterans from the northwest Arkansas region visited the World War II Memorial in Washington, D.C. this past weekend as part of trip Tyson Foods, Inc. helped fund and organize.
The trip, called Honor Flight, was planned in coordination with a national organization called the Honor Flight Network. It was established four years ago to transport America's veterans to Washington, D.C. to visit those memorials dedicated to honor their service and sacrifices.
Great program. My grandfather made a trip in October out of Central MO. Top notch organization and these vets deserve every chance given to see their memorials.

What a fantastic program. So many people give very little thought to the many brave men and women who have fought and died for our liberty. They so deserve this special treatment! Many thanks to Tyson and Walmart.
