Honor Flights take veterans to see the memorials that were built in honor of their service at no cost to the veterans. The Flag City Honor Flight organization is based in Findlay and helps plan trips for veterans from around the region. \u201cWe enjoy our freedom and way of life due to the countless sacrifices made by the men and women that dutifully served our country in conflict,\u201d said Latta. \u201cThe veterans on this Honor Flight were able to see up close the beautiful memorials that stand as a tribute to their service. Words can\u2019t fully express our appreciation for their defense of our nation, but the Honor Flight program has been one important way to honor our veterans and their
