Kansas Honor Flight program faces delays for WWII veterans
The Central Prairie Honor Flights group in Great Bend faces friction with the national Honor Flight Network over trip issues including late reporting and uncashed checks.

Continuous veteran outreach and collaboration are urged to preserve access for WWII vets as remaining numbers dwindle.
