Gary Sinise Honors WWII Vets with a Trip of a Lifetime

When Gary Sinise started his "Soaring Valor" program he not only wanted to honor and show gratitude to the Greatest Generation, but also ensure that their legacy is known by our future generations. Several times each year, the #garysinisefoundation takes WWII veterans alongside high school students together to the ‪@wwiimuseum‬ in New Orleans. In this way, our young citizens can connect directly with their past and realize fully the price of freedom.
The Gary Sinise Foundation also funds a historian at the museum to collect these amazing heroes' stories during their visits!
Thank you to our presenting sponsors at ‪@AmericanAirlines‬ for making these very special flights possible! Special thanks to our event supporters at ‪@amazon‬ and our hosts at the ‪@wwiimuseum‬ for giving back to our defenders!
To find out more about the Gary Sinise Foundation's mission to support veterans, the military, first responders, their families and those in need please visit www.garysinisefoundation.org

I can NOT love this enough. THANK YOU Gary and your entire foundation. My dad served in WWII, First Division Marine, "sharp shooter" with "shell shock" yet the most humble man. He joined as soon as he could. Even though he lost his brother, while his other brother actually saw him on the ground not knowing it was him. He was in the CCC's I still have his "yearbook" which was in the DIA. I have his Cookbook from being on a battleship because that was HIS job on the ship. Thank You for for bringing in our Young Ones to learn.

So incredible and what a privilege to have these heroes still among us. I had the honor of making friends with a local WWII vet in my community recently and have enjoyed every minute ive had with him. Its sad to think of what our country has become in the interim, but hearing these students' appreciation for the vets is a reminder that there is hope, that there is good, and that we all play a role in the future of our country and our world. Thank you to everyone at the GSF!!! And thank you to all our amazing vets, we owe you so so much that no words can ever match

I had the honor of being on an Honor Flight with my Dad in September of 2008. He was a former POW. Truly the greatest generation. He passed in September of 2018. Thank you to all veterans and to Gary for all he does for our veterans.🇺🇸🇺🇸

This is so neat to see the veterans teaching the students what they went through in WW2. I have learned a lot from them and so incredible of what they went through to keep America free. It's a blessing and honor to have these veterans with us to show us what they went through to keep themselves and others free. They are a blessing to me. Thank you all for your service.
