Katie sends us a link to the story of 12 World War II veterans who were given a trip to Washington, DC to visit the World War II Memorial. They left on their adventure this morning;
The trip is part of the annual Journey of Heroes event, organized by two nonprofit organizations, Vital Life Foundation and Wish of a Lifetime.
Both organizations said their missions are to help, honor and appreciate the lives of senior citizens.
The destination is Washington D.C., where the veterans will participate in various activities including a visit the WWII memorial, created in their honor.

I just wish my father could have made such a trip before he passed away at the age of 90! He will always be my hero, and I live for the day my POS brother will finally be arrested for his fraud against the VA and my family!
I’ll say what everyone else is thinking. I hope that every one of them had to provide proof that he actually served in the military during WW II.
