The 51st Honor Flight, organized by Eastern Iowa Honor Flight and sponsored by Collins Aerospace,  flew out of Cedar Rapids Airport on May 28 to Washington, D.C., with 88 veterans and their guardians. 

Due to the hiccups early on in their trip, they missed some of the morning tour, but that did not hamper the excitement of the day. The veterans witnessed some amazing memorials, monuments, Arlington Cemetery and the changing of the guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.
