Today we as a county thank the men and women that serve/have served to defend the freedoms our great nation was founded upon. Thank you.
Grandpa Brotherson got to participate in what is called an Honor Flight – a one day whirlwind trip to Washington D.C. to observe the World War II memorial. The experience must have been truly amazing. KC Star has a more in depth article explaining the honor flight.
Thank you Grandpa.
