Looking for Veterans
Honor Air Trip April 9, 2025


CALLING ALL VETERANS (who have never been on an Honor Air Trip)  

Roswell Rotary Honor Air is accepting 50 applications from US War veterans, America’s heros, for a complimentary free day trip to visit their Memorials  in Washington DC on April 9,2025.

Many of the men and women who fought and sacrificed for our country have not had the opportunity to visit their own Memorials. Our World War II veterans and also our Korean War veterans are facing health challenges so time is of the essence for these great men and women In addition, We want to give our Vietnam War veterans the “Welcome Home” they never received, honoring their service, sacrifice, and commitment to our country.

Here is how the Honor Air works: Approximately seventy World War II, Korean, and Vietnam War veterans plus guardians, a doctor and emergency personnel will gather at the Roswell, GA Community Center in the early morning hours and travel by motorcoach to the Atlanta airport. They will fly on a chartered plane to Washington, D.C. where they will be escorted on buses from the Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport to the World War II Memorial. Then they will visit the Vietnam and Korean Memorials and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington Cemetery. That same day they will return to the Reagan airport, fly back to Atlanta and then by bus to Roswell. Every veteran will have a volunteer guardian to personally assist them. Veterans will be encouraged to take advantage of the complimentary wheelchairs throughout the day.
