Shining the Spotlight: Stories of Honor
On today’s episode of The Tom Letizia Show, we sat down with Belinda Morse, Founding Director of Honor Flight Southern Nevada, to explore her inspiring mission of honoring veterans with all-expense-paid trips to Washington, D.C. Belinda shared powerful stories of World War II, Korean, and Vietnam veterans seeing their memorials for the first time, and the emotional impact these journeys have on both the veterans and their families.
We discussed:
- The origins of Honor Flight Southern Nevada
- How each flight is coordinated and funded
- The moving "mail call" tradition onboard the return flight
- Why it's crucial to honor our aging heroes now
- Community support and how listeners can get involved
Belinda also opened up about the personal connections that drive her dedication, including her own family's military history and the volunteers who make it all happen.
It was a heartfelt, patriotic conversation reminding us that freedom isn’t free—and gratitude never goes out of style.
