More than 100 midshipmen welcomed visiting World War II veterans for dinner at the Laboon Center on the U.S. Naval Academy campus Sept. 11. The veterans were in the Washington, D.C., area as part of the Honor Flight program that takes U.S. war veterans to visit their respective war memorials in the nations capital at no cost. Every Saturday, the Midshipman Action Group organizes a large group of midshipman volunteers to greet the veterans as they exit the terminal at BWI, but this was only the second time the veterans have visited the mids on their home ground.
