“I was a guardian on the 19th Greater Lafayette Honor Flight, and it was a day that will always have a special place in my heart. It meant so much to see the veterans being honored for their service. I was blessed to be able to spend this special day with them. I cannot put into words what it meant to be a guardian for a Korean veteran who I now consider a special friend. It was the most amazing day! Thank you to all of the volunteers who make these flights possible. Your hard work and dedication is appreciated. God bless all of you.”
"I had the honor and privilege to go on the 21st flight on 9/11/18. I can't say enough about how all of the veterans were treated. it was all about us; the volunteers did everything they could to make sure we had the best experience possible. The trip was both humbling and happy, a lot of different emotions going on at the same time. And the greeting at the Purdue airport was overwhelming, first time I was welcomed home after 43 years. Again, thank you to everyone who made this special day possible for us veterans. Your generosity will not be forgotten by myself or the other vets you have helped."

How does an Honor Flight work?
Our trips allow those who served in World War II, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War to travel to Washington, D.C., get to know other veterans, and visit their memorials. An Honor Flight is more than a “thank you.” It’s the start of lasting connections for veterans in the community.
We started Honor Flight of Greater Lafayette to provide all-expense-paid trips to Washington, D.C. for Indiana veterans. On these one-day trips, veterans have the opportunity to visit their memorials and enjoy time with other local veterans. We depart from Purdue University Airport in the morning, experience a great day sightseeing in the nation’s capital, and return in the evening.
It can be hard for veterans to get out and stay active and connected. That’s why we design our Honor Flights with the goal of empowering them, helping them meet others through pre-flight events, and offering them honor and gratitude for their service.
