Here's a photo gallery from the October Soaring Valor visit to the Museum, which included an airport welcome, an evening banquet at the Museum, a staff greeting at the Museum the next morning, tours of our galleries, a Victory Belles matinee performance, and a visit to the WWII Air, Sea & Land Festival. For this trip, the veterans were paired with students from Los Angeles Notre Dame High School. Thanks to all who joined us, and thanks to the Gary Sinise Foundation, American Airlines, and the Sheraton New Orleans for making Soaring Valor possible. See you next time!
