Veterans Benefits and Assistance
1
Honor Flight
Our mission is one of gratitude.
For their service, sacrifice, and selflessness.
Join us as we proudly celebrate America’s Veterans with a day of honor in our nation’s capital.
Participation in an Honor Flight trip gives veterans the opportunity to share this momentous occasion with other comrades, remember the fallen, and share their stories and experiences with other veterans. Honored veterans always travel free of charge, thanks to generous donations to our organization.
Honor Flight Network currently honors those who served during World War II, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, and veterans of any service era who are critically ill.

Pre-Need Application for National Cemetaries
You can apply to find out in advance if you can be buried in a VA national cemetery. This is called a pre-need determination of eligibility—and it can help make the burial planning process easier for your family members in their time of need.
