PASCAGOULA -- MS Gulf Coast Honor Flight has received questions about our intentions to fly Korean veterans currently, or in the near future, according to Jen Walton, secretary.
She said the organization has developed an official statement on the issue with the intention to avoid misleading or confusing the public.
The official statement says, "MS Gulf Coast Honor Flight's mission is to fly ONLY WWII veterans at this time. We will, however, make exceptions for terminally-ill veterans.
"In the event we decide in the future to move forward to Korean veterans, we will publicize it at that time. If any Korean veteran would like to send in an application, in the chance we do take them, they are welcome to fill out an application and mark it KOREAN at the top. However, there are no promises of this occurring in the near future, if at all.' Thank you for your support."
