Honor Flight Fayette
World War II Registry of
Remembrance
America has much for which to be thankful. Not in the least are
her World War II veterans; our fathers, uncles, aunts and grandparents.
Today's America is forever
grateful to those who answered the call to duty to serve and protect their
homeland. Today, thanks to the National WWII Memorial in Washington, DC,
which honors all Americans who served in the armed forces and those who
supported the war effort stateside, you have the opportunity to forever
link your veteran's service through the World War II Registry of
Remembrances.
Go to
http://www.wwiimemorial.com to submit the information on your veteran.
Honor their service by memorializing their names in the registry. Read more
