More than 40 Sailors assigned to the guided-missile destroyer USS Chafee (DDG 90) and various commands clean the Navy Veterans
Cemetery in Honolulu in preparation for Veteran's Day, Nov. 11. Photo courtesy U.S. Navy by Mass Communication Specialist 2nd

Honor Flight Michigan is a group of dedicated volunteers that arrange two flights a week to take World War II veterans to the
District of Columbia to see their memorial. Two types of people go on these flights; World War II veterans and volunteer
"guardians"; who spend the day as escorts and assisting the veterans. The cost to the veteran is absolutely nothing, the staff that
arranges these flights are not paid, and it is a non-profit organization. The guardians that accompany the veterans volunteer to go,
pay their flight costs..., and have one of the most profound, exhausting and invigorating days with a great group of America's
heroes. One place where every veteran on the flight wanted their picture taken was at the Michigan column of the memorial.
