DAVENPORT, Iowa (KWQC) - Honor Flight of the Quad Cities says the 63rd flight will be taking off in September and KWQC will be a part of it.

KWQC is partnering with Hy-Vee to sponsor the 63rd flight.

The director of Honor Flight of the Quad Cities said the support from this community over the years has been overwhelming for him and all the veterans they’ve taken to Washington D.C.

“I was a company commander and every person in the company were my boys and now every veteran that gets to go on a flight, they’re my boys and I care for each of them like my own kids,” said Stephen Garrington, director of Honor Flight of the Quad Cities.

On Sept. 16, KWQC will be on the flight with the veterans as they get to see the monuments built in their honor.
