Honor Flight Article in The New York Times
Here at ADVANCE, we’ve been following Ohio PA Earl Morse and his organization, Honor Flight, since its inception in 2005. I'm excited to share this recent feature article in The New York Times about one of Honor Flight’s largest trips yet:
The idea for Honor Flight came from Earl Morse, who was a physician’s assistant at a Veterans Affairs clinic in Springfield, Ohio, when the World War II Memorial opened in 2004.
“I would see my World War II veterans some three, six months later, and I’d ask them if they’d gone to see it,” said Mr. Morse, a veteran of the Air Force and now the president of Honor Flight. “Three hundred of them, and not one of them had been to it. Reality set in. They were never going.”
