Wonderful veterans were doing today while they were here.
So they are going to Washington, D.C. to tour the monuments and take a tour of Arlington Cemetery. They're gonn witness the changing of the guard. They're doing all of this for free through the organization Indiana Flight. She's the star.
She is the star.
She's so pretty.
All right. My name is Brian Calvert. This is my dog, Dixie. We're the therapy dog team for Indiana Fly. And today we got clearance to come to the airport to get all the veterans on their plane to go to D.C. and all the veterans love Dixie. I've got her trained to do a couple little tricks. I'll go through for you, Dixie. Pray, Dixie. Pray. Amen, Dixie. What do you say to all these guys for their service, huh? What do you. What do you say? Good girl. We just kind of walk around and she gives the vets kisses and they hug on her and just kind of, kind of take their mind off the feeling they're getting ready to go on. And they love her and they all love her and we love them. So that's why we're doing what we're doing.
Well, we'll make sure that we attach your information to our video so that anybody that sees they can check out what you guys are doing.
Everything we do is for the veterans.
We appreciate it very much and thank you for taking the time to talk to us.
No problem. Thank you.
So here we are at Indianapolis Airport. We was delayed from 7:15 to 10:25, but everything happens for a reason. And we was able to cheer on about 80 veterans from the Vietnam War, World War II, Korea War as they boarded their honor flight from Indianapolis to Washington D.C. memorials. So we got to cheer them on, and we all got choked up a little bit. It was just an awesome experience we did. Thank you, veterans.
