William F. Blamer, a Korean War vet, recently passed away. This was a day short of his 4 year anniversary of his honor flight. The honor flight meant the world to Bill. He was loved by many, and he was extremely proud of his service. His son, John Blamer, participated in the honor flight with Bill. John and Cindy loved Bill very much and will miss him dearly.

Bill was proud to serve our country in Korea in the 1950’s, and was very touched by "the mail call" upon his return from the Honor Flight. Those mail call notes were buried with Bill. All who knew Bill will remember him for his generosity, his friendliness, his inclusiveness, and the way he made everyone feel like a member of his family.

Bolton, Robert

We would like to make a donation to Stars and Stripes Honor Flight in memory of my Uncle Bob, who was a World War II Veteran, and was fortunate to be on the Stars and Stripes Flight in October 2011. He left us on August 17, 2019, at the age of 97. The opportunity that your organization provided was very meaningful to him. The welcome home greeting at the airport was very moving, for both the trip participants, and those of us welcoming them home. I think the entire trip was something he remembered and was thankful for, for the remainder of his life. Thank you for everything you do for our Veterans.
Sheila and John Campbell
Bob was 21 when he served in the Army during World War II, from October 1942 through Christmas Eve 1945. He served as a medic and first aid man in the Philippines and Okinawa. The Sullivan veteran was awarded two Purple Hearts — one for an injury from a piece of shrapnel in his knee and another he could not recall. Bob also received two Bronze Star Medals for digging men out of trenches after a Japanese buzz bomb attack. “I dug a couple of them out by hand, and my (commanding officer) said I deserved a medal for that,” he said. In addition, his unit was awarded the Presidential Unit Citation, given to units of the United States Armed Forces, and those of allied countries, for extraordinary heroism in action against an armed enemy on or after Dec. 7, 1941— the date of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor and start of America’s involvement in World War II.

Matuszewski, Jr., Walter

Uncle Wally was born January 18, 1928 and went home to be with the Lord God Almighty on October 1, 2019. He served in the Army in 1945, while we don’t have a great deal of the details of his service, we wanted to remember him, his life and his service by donating to the Honor Flight. His wife Elaine, his children Judy & Randy went home to Heaven before him. He is survived by 7 of his children, their spouses and a multitude of grandchildren. Lucky Wally was a concertina player in his Polka band in Cudahy, WI. Rest in peace Uncle Wally, we hope other vets will get to see their memorials in Wash. DC. Thank you for your service.

A donation was created from memorials received at Walter’s funeral. He proudly served in the Navy during the Korean War. He was privileged to experience the Honor Flight with his daughter Diane. It was an experience of a lifetime that he never forgot. The parade upon his return brought a smile to his face that his friends and family will never forget. With many thanks to all who make this event possible!

Walter Orlinski proudly served in the Navy during the Korean War. He and his daughter, Diane, were able to go on the Honor Flight to Washington D.C. a few years ago. Walter said that this trip was one of the highlights of his life and that he was so glad that he was able to see the Korean Memorial and spend the day with other veterans. He also said that every aspect of the trip was very well planned and executed. He had a big smile on his face as he showed me the pictures taken that day.

Smith, J

“J” “B” Smith, age 89, of Kenosha, died on Wednesday, October 30th, 2019, at Kenosha Hospice Alliance, with his loving family by his side. He joined the US Navy after high school and served 23 years achieving the rank of LCDR before retiring in 1971. During his naval career, he met the love of his life who worked at Great Lakes Naval Base, Charlene, and they were married on November 24th, 1956 in Great Lakes, Ill. She brought a special sparkle to his eyes that never faded, and she was a proud Navy wife. Their marriage extended beyond 58 years and their family continued to grow. “J” “B” thoroughly loved spending time with his family and loved to gather his children and grandchildren. He was very active at St Thomas Church, in the parish council, ushering, and as a lector. He worked at Miller Brewing as part of the team that bottled the first bottle of Miller. In 2013 he had the special privilege of being on the first Stars and Stripes Honor Flight for Korean War Veterans.

Spitzer, Donald

Donald R Spitzer QM 3rd Class United States Navy 1943-1946 Don enlisted in the Navy as an 18 year old after graduation from West Allis Central High School because it was the right thing to do. He was assigned to the crew of Landing Craft Tank (LCT 1082). LCT 1082 joined a flotilla of 24 LCT’s and travelled 7470 miles from Pearl Harbor to Okinawa, Japan. The flotilla survived getting lost in a typhoon for several days without any loss of lives. They were successful, completing their mission. Don never talked much about his experiences until very late in his life. His children suggested a Honor Flight but he declined. Perhaps he felt it was to much fuss over his service. Don passed away in 2011. He left us a scrapbook that he kept with 100’s of pictures and documents from his Naval service. To this day, "Anchors Away" bring tears to our eyes. He will forever be our hero.
