Stars and Stripes Honor Flight

Sharing your Stars and Stripes Honor Flight day with a friend… priceless. #Vietnam #Everydayisabonus

A night of honor with my mom! @SSHonorFlight 🇺🇸

Does anyone remember our joyful pandemic celebrity, WWII Navy vet “Dancing Chuck”? We miss him, and wondered if others do, too…

Hey @tomhanks… thanks again for Band of Brothers. No matter how many times we have seen it, it never fails to touch our hearts and reinforce our gratitude for the #WWII generation.

🇺🇸 As we celebrate Veterans Day, learn about alumnus and veteran Tom Huhn’s lifelong service and Marquette spirit. #WeAreMarquette   🚁  Tom Huhn, Bus Ad ‘66, was drafted into the U.S. Army shortly after graduating from Marquette. He applied for flight school and soon found himself as a helicopter pilot dodging enemy bullets in Vietnam. He was shot down twice. “I should not be here today,” Huhn says. “There were too many bullets coming my way.”    💙💛 Huhn married his sweetheart, Lucy, in 1969 and raised eight children in Elm Grove, Wisconsin. He built a career in technology specializing in computer services before retiring. The Huhns have been men’s basketball season ticket holders for 55 years and established an endowed scholarship for students with financial need.    ✈️ In May, Huhn reconnected with memories of his Vietnam service by traveling to Washington, D.C., on the Stars and Stripes Honor Flight. On his return, over a thousand supporters at Mitchell International Airport gave the Vietnam vets a long-overdue welcome home. “This time, people were cheering for us,” Huhn says.

Giving local veterans an unforgettable experience. 🤝 We proudly supported @SSHonorFlight's Flight of Champions, which helped 51 area veterans see their memorials in Washington, D.C., this month. Thank you to all veterans for your service today and every day. 🇺🇸

@brady_parks @drniedfeldt We are so glad that you shared that special day with him and have those treasured memories!

@drniedfeldt @SSHonorFlight Took my 97 year old WWII Granddad in 2017, amazing experience. He called it his ‘best day ever’!

I had the privilege of accompanying my father, a Vietnam veteran, on the @SSHonorFlight 82nd mission. What an amazing experience for both of us. This is an amazing organization with unbelievably dedicated volunteers. Thank you form the bottom of my heart for your efforts!
