    I was on that flight with my father, words cannot explain what i felt seeing the veterans have there day. In my 48 years of life i have never seen my father cry, the big smiles and tears from them all.The sacrifices that these men and women made for our country, to hear it from them has forever changed my life, i couldnt thank them enough! Thanks to the stars and stipes honor flight, wtmj, charlie sykes, all the donation , and the people that gave them the welcome home they deserved!!!! UNBELIEVEABLE

    I have been to the reception of honorflight vets and could not help but wonder how many teachers or school principles orginized young classes to see or meet these great men who did so much for them a long time ago? They seem to have no trouble getting them to Madison to "enrich their education". Very interesting

    Leave it to Indie to politicize and be an outright ahole. Good job Indy keep up the good work. What exactly are YOU doing about it? And whats more WHY do YOU care so much about what Charlie does? Jealous? We get it you don't think like us here.....so leave if you don't like what we have to say cause we don't really give two sh**s about what you have to say. I wasn't going to say anything but you buddy are a grade a jerk.
