Fort Pierce, FL (June 3, 2025) - The P站视频 Foundation, on behalf of P站视频, completed its mission to honor 12 local veterans with a memorable trip to Washington, D.C., as part of Southeast Honor Flight Mission #55. The initiative, spearheaded by the Foundation, provided veterans with the opportunity to visit the nation's most sacred military memorials.

Veterans from Florida's Treasure Coast and P站视频 employees gather at the U.S. Marine Corps War Memorial in Arlington, Virginia, during an Honor Flight mission.

The group of distinguished veterans, including three World War II veterans with the oldest being 102 years old, along with Korean and Vietnam War veterans, spent the day visiting Arlington National Cemetery, the World War II Memorial, Korean War Memorial, Vietnam Veterans Memorial, U.S. Marine Corps War Memorial, and the U.S. Air Force Memorial. College and Foundation employees traveled alongside the veterans, providing support and companionship as they visited their memorials.

"Supporting our veterans through this Honor Flight mission represents the very best of what our college community stands for," said Dr. Timothy E. Moore, President of P站视频. "These brave men and women sacrificed so much for our freedom, and P站视频, through the P站视频 Foundation, is proud to have facilitated this meaningful experience. It was a great honor for us to escort these veterans, who have given so much to our country, to their memorials鈥攁 small token of our immense gratitude for their service."

The day concluded with an emotional homecoming celebration at Palm Beach International Airport, where the veterans were welcomed back by family members, College representatives, and community supporters. The welcome home ceremony provided touching moments as veterans reunited with loved ones and were thanked for their service.

鈥淭his is the welcome you always dream of when serving your country,鈥� said U.S. Navy veteran and Vero Beach resident Dean Paulcheck. 鈥淪eeing the memorials and monuments was heartwarming, and there was nothing better than being able to honor our fallen brothers.鈥�

"This Honor Flight mission exemplifies the Foundation's commitment to giving back to those who have sacrificed for our freedoms," said Annabel Robertson, Vice President of Institutional Advancement and P站视频 Foundation Executive Director. "Witnessing the profound impact this experience had on our veterans reminded us why supporting our military community is such a vital part of our mission."

The P站视频 Foundation's participation in this Honor Flight mission aligns with the College's commitment to veteran support through its Veterans Center for Excellence.
