This morning, we hosted a group of veterans at the Korean War Veterans Memorial in Washington, D.C.
It was moving to watch them use their Ray-Ban Meta glasses to read the inscriptions and hear the memorial described around them.
Thank you to our @Meta team, @HonorFlightNet and @GovWesMoore for joining us to honor these heroes. And most importantly, thank you to our veterans for your service and sacrifice. 🇺🇸
Happy Veterans Day to all who have served!
We are appreciative of the opportunity to welcome thousands of veterans each year to our region via @HonorFlightNet.
From water salutes to in-terminal recognition, each of these arrivals is truly special.
It was an honor to spend an evening in Washington, D.C. with veterans who traveled from all across the country with @HonorFlightNet to recognize their service and sacrifice.
Thank you to Senators @ReverendWarnock and @SenatorBanks and Representatives @RepBrianBabin and @RepJoshG for joining us in honoring our veterans. And thank you to @BradPaisley for a memorable performance.
Above all, thank you to our veterans. This Veterans Day, we honor your courage, the sacrifices you and your families have made, and all you have given to our country.
A lifetime of service, a moment of profound gratitude. 🇺🇸 There’s nothing quite like witnessing our veterans experience the honor they so deeply deserve. Thank you for your service and sacrifice.

I was grateful to spend time with the heroes of Honor Flight @HonorFlightNet at the World War II Memorial, and I’m proud to stand with veterans who served our country across generations. 🇺🇸
Today we salute the great patriots who served our country with courage and devotion.
This Honor Flight to Washington, D.C. with Army, Air Force, Navy, and Marine veterans reminds us of the deep gratitude we owe these heroes - whose sacrifice and patriotism inspire us all 🇺🇸 @HonorFlightNet
Ahead of Veterans Day, I was honored to welcome a flight of veterans and their families as they arrived in DC.
To all those who bravely served our country, thank you to you and your family for your extraordinary service. The sacrifices that all of you have made to protect our country will be honored, today and every day.
One of the honors of serving as President is having the "Presidential Challenge Coin" — a memento that I have handed out as President and in the years since to the folks I meet who have served our country or their communities. I was grateful to be able to greet veterans who served in Korea and Vietnam as they arrived in DC this weekend, and give them a personal token of my gratitude.
Happy birthday @USCG
Defending our coasts, protecting our homeland and preserving our way of life since 1790. Thank you America’s sentinels of the sea! We are truly grateful. Happy Birthday.

THANK YOU. You’re the difference makers. Your generous support of the @HonorFlightNet American Heroes Cup makes it possible to transport America’s veterans to D.C. to visit the memorials dedicated to honoring those who served & sacrificed for Our Country.
Exactly twenty years ago – on May 21st, 2005 – history was made with the very first Honor Flight. What began with six small planes and a dozen WWII veterans has transformed into a national nonprofit organization, Honor Flight Network, comprised of 130+ hubs wholly dedicated to honoring and celebrating America’s heroes. Honor Flight co-founders Jeff Miller and Earl Morse created the simple, yet profound, vision of bringing veterans to the nation’s capital to visit their memorials. Since then, Honor Flight has impacted the lives of over 317,128 veterans – treating them to an unforgettable journey of gratitude.
This anniversary isn't just about a date. It's about remembering the faces, the sacrifices, and the incredible spirit that built this nation. Each and every Honor Flight trip is a chance to say "thank you" to the brave men and women who have given so much to protect the freedoms we cherish. Today we commemorate the enduring legacy of Honor Flight and the 317,128+ veterans we have celebrated with their trip of honor to our nation’s capital. Here’s to Honor Flight, gratitude for our veterans, and celebrating the absolute best of America.
