About this episode

University of Mary football players assist veterans at Bismarck airport during an Honor Flight trip.

University of Mary football players showed their gratitude to veterans by assisting Western North Dakota Honor Flight veterans at Bismarck airport.

The veterans, like Dietrich Wilkens, who served in the Army from 1953 to 1955, expressed their appreciation for the players support. The group plans to visit the U.S. Capitol and key memorials before returning home, and the community is encouraged to welcome them with a heros welcome.
