This is a 2 part mission
 
The PGR has been invited by Honor Flight Inland Empire to attend their next event to honor our Heroes from World War II, Korea & Vietnam.
 
On September 21, 2018, they will send 17 WWII Veterans, 6 Korea Vets and 2 Vietnam Vets, to Washington, DC for an all expense paid trip to celebrate their contribution to our freedom and to thank them for their sacrifice.  Also, 5 Heroes who were not able to come are being honored as well, as their pictures are going with the group to honor them.
 
This is our chance to thank these Heroes in person, shake their hand, let them know how much they mean to us. Please bring your flags, your smiles, your hugs, your honor and respect, this will be a fun mission!!!
