How To Apply
The Veteran Application
If you are a honorably-discharged veteran of the United States military and served during the eras of military conflict listed below, Honor Flight of Southern Colorado would like to recognize you, your service, and your sacrifice by offering you an all-expense paid trip to Washington DC to visit some of our Nation’s memorials and monuments.
The eras include veterans who served during:
* World War II;
* Korean War;
* Vietnam War;
* Any veteran of any era who is suffering from a terminal illness.
Honor Flight of Southern Colorado will also provide trained Guardians to escort our veterans and offer assistance for a safe, memorable, and rewarding journey.
Per our organizational rules, spouses cannot travel with their veteran as Guardians unless they are also veterans OR are between the ages of 18-70 years old. If another family member would like to serve as a Guardian for their veteran, we can allow only one person per veteran.
Please use the Veteran Application button below to fill out the online version.
FOR YOUR HEALTH SAFETY, HONOR FLIGHT OF SOUTHERN COLORADO HIGHLY RECOMMENDS THAT EACH PERSON PARTICIPATING IN AN HONOR FLIGHT BE FULLY VACCINATED AND HAVE TAKEN YOUR BOOSTER SHOT.

* Welcoming home our heroes at the end of their mission with an even more boisterous post-flight reception;
* Working with our Communications Committee entering veteran and Guardian data into our Honor App database and mailing any requested application material or any purchased merchandise;
* Contacting veterans and Guardians to make arrangements based on our projected flight schedules;
* Help with any other projects as needed.
