The Western North Dakota Honor Flight announces their upcoming flight out of Minot, North Dakota, a first for the hub. The flight will depart from Minot on Sunday, April 27, 2024, and return Monday, April 28.
“We are deeply honored to bring our sixth flight to Minot, marking a significant milestone for our region and for the Veterans who have selflessly served our country,” said Western North Dakota Honor Flight Board President Dennis Burdolski. “The Western North Dakota Honor Flight is a powerful reminder of the gratitude and respect we owe to those who have sacrificed so much.”
Western North Dakota Honor Flight board members will soon begin notifying Veterans slated to fly on this upcoming flight. We are excited to share this unforgettable experience with these heroes and to show them, in person, how much they mean to us all. This flight is another tribute not only to a Veteran’s service but to the communities in western North Dakota that continue to support them with generosity and pride.
There are currently plans in development to make available a virtual “flight” to veterans who may be unable to travel. Additionally, the board is busy making plans for flight seven slated for early Fall 2025.
This experience is provided at no cost to the Veteran. All the funds raised for the flight have been generously donated by businesses, service organizations, fund raising events and personal donations from individuals across western North Dakota.
Honor Flight is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to celebrate America’s Veterans by inviting them to share in a day of honor at our nation’s memorials. Combined, the 128 hubs have taken more than 300,000 military Veterans to see the national war memorials.
