Forever young vets

No one loves this great nation of ours, or supports its veterans quite like country music. As the daughter of a Marine, I can't even being to tell you how proud I am to be, not only associated with, but surrounded by true patriots who respect our country, our flag, and our veterans. That's why I'm sure once you hear about this book, you're going to buy one for yourself and/or as a gift. Because your purchase won't just benefit you - but the men and women who came before you, too.

Forever Young Veterans is an organization that gives thanks to and for our veterans by offering them trips and fulfilling wishes to veterans of WWII, Vietnam, and Korea. (see below!)

The founder of FYV, Diane Hight just published her 1st book. The title is Forever Young Veterans and it is on Amazon-$15. They need to sell around 2,000 books to cover costs and 100% of all profits go to their work in honoring and helping our Veterans. The book documents numerous amazing stories of Veterans that our organization has taken on our trips of Honor over the years.

Trips of Honor

What started as one man’s wish to visit the National World War II Memorial, turned into the main mission for Forever Young Veterans. Many of the WWII veterans had not witnessed the monument that stands in their honor. The memorial wasn’t complete until 2004. By then, the trip to Washington D.C. was too difficult for these elderly veterans to take on their own. FYV is taking several trips per year for WWII, Korea, and Vietnam veterans.

FYV offers trips to:

  • Washington D.C.
  • Normandy
  • Belgium
  • Pearl Harbor
  • Germany
  • Vietnam
  • England
  • Italy
  • South Korea

Wishes of Honor

From FYV:

We all have dreams. Something, that if we can achieve, will add years to our life and life to our years. What better way to honor our senior veterans than to give them a priceless gift. The wishes we've granted range from throwing out the first pitch of a MLB game or going on a Wild Hog Hunt, to finding a buddy from the war. Let us honor you and bring fulfillment to your life.

Past Wishes of Honor:

  • Finding lost love
  • Skydiving
  • A New Smile
  • Final Flight in a B-17
  • Wild Hog Hunt

The Book

Are you ready to hit Omaha Beach on D-Day; step out on a suicide mission in the North African desert; fight your way out of Chosin Reservoir at 30 degrees below zero; eject from your F-4 fighter over Hanoi; and fall in love with a young French girl as you leave for the battle front?

These are only a few of the stories from WWII, Korea, and Vietnam contained in this book; stories that are disappearing from the American mind. Join our writers as they detail the personal war stories of the American soldiers, sailors, airmen, and Marines who were there - ordinary Americans who were asked to do extraordinary duties. Prepare yourself for a new sense of gratitude and respect for the men and women who fight our wars in the trenches. Are you ready?

Every purchase helps end the silent suffering of a WWII, Korea, or Vietnam veteran on a Trip of Honor®.
