Below is a video about the Honor Flight program, which flies WWII vets to Washington so they can visit the World War II Memorial on the National Mall. As you'll learn in the video, every 90 seconds we lose a veteran who participated in the noble conquest of the Axis powers.
All gave some, some gave all, but soon there will be no one left from the Greatest Generation.
