Veterans to be flown from Kentucky to Washington memorials
WINCHESTER, Ky. (AP) — George Campbell has spent 33 years in the military community.
Eight of those years were served in uniform and the rest have been in a civilian capacity. The former operations officer who now volunteers with veterans groups including the VA and Sixth Congressional District Veterans Coalition is proud of what the United States military has done for him throughout his life.
A Cincinnati native, Campbell is now proud to be an Honor Flight Bluegrass Ambassador, as for the first time Honor Flight Bluegrass will fly 72 veterans from Blue Grass Airport in Lexington to Washington D.C. for a one-day, all expenses paid trip to visit the memorials Saturday, Sept. 26, that have been built to honor their service and sacrifices.
