It's a long way from the Arklatex to our nation's capitol -- both in terms of distance and cost. But Brookshire's Grocery Company is paying the bill and carting local veterans of World War II to Washington D.C. so they can see the monuments and memorials in their honor.
World War II vets who have not previously visited the memorials and want to go on possible future trips can apply by calling (903) 534-3076.
