Today marks the 81st anniversary of Allied victory in Europe, bringing an end to World War II on the continent.

At the World War II Memorial, stone and bronze honor the millions who served, remember those who never came home, and mark a turning point in the fight to restore freedom.

As the generation who lived this history grows smaller, places like this ensure their stories endure. We honor their courage, their service, and the sacrifice that made victory possible.

ALA Sponsors Lone Eagle Honor Flight to Honor Female Veterans

This month, female veterans will be flying from nationwide to Washington, D.C. to be recognized for their military service and visit various memorials and monuments through an ALA-sponsored Lone Eagle Honor Flight.

A Lone Eagle flight differs from a traditional Honor Flight where veterans leave and arrive on the same flight, by ensuring all eligible veterans can participate in the experience, regardless of their geographic location.

The sponsored flight came from the ALA and Honor Flight Inc.’s formal partnership in 2021 to help support Honor Flight Inc.’s mission of celebrating America’s veterans by inviting them to a special day of honor at our nation’s memorials and monuments. The official collaboration allows units and departments to directly donate funds generated from poppy distributions to Honor Flight hubs.

ALA National President Pam Ray formed a sentimental attachment to the Honor Flight program after attending a flight with her father, a U.S. Army veteran, in 2010. The genuine connection with Honor Flight’s mission helped inspire this ALA-sponsored flight. You can see her comments on YouTube:
