Volunteers are always welcome and free at their own initiative to greet and welcome veterans directly at the Memorials! Veterans arrive not just from Reagan Airport, but from BWI, IAD, the local area, and on their own.
Some Saturdays are deemed “Super Saturdays” as up to 10-15 different hubs are all in town, arriving via all three area airports or by bus from their home town! The best place to greet these groups is at the WWII Memorial; as the buses park in the same area and greeters can line up as the Veterans make their way into the Memorial under the Pacific Arch.
Veterans make a combined stop and Vietnam / Korean Memorials and buses may be directed to park in one of many locations. The best place to greet an Honor Flight for this combined stop is to proceed directly to the Memorial.
Greeters can spend as much time as desired greeting flights as they arrive and unload. This is a great experience and well suited for large groups.
There is metered parking near the Memorials on Ohio Drive, in the Tidal Basin parking lot (near the paddleboats), and around the National Mall. Bathrooms are available at the WWII Memorial.

For WWII Memorial Volunteers. Some of your volunteer duties could be:
-Greet the buses and then introduce yourself to the hub leader. Ask them if they need assistance with unloading the wheelchairs.
-Show the veterans where the restrooms are (right there where the buses unload, look to the left and small bldg for men and women’s restroom, look to the right and you can see the tourist information bldg where the park rangers sit and where the WWII veteran’s database is located beside the front windows).
-Ask the hub or bus leader if they need a temporary guardian at the WWII Memorial, some hubs pick up their metro area guardian at the WWII Memorial but the volunteer may be late so you can push the wheelchair veteran round until his/her guardian shows up.
-Please watch the walking veterans, they get overconfident and then fall.
-Assist the veterans with checking the database at the tourist center for their names.
-Assist the veteran with having their pictures taken with or without their guardian.
-Assist the veteran by using their camera to have their picture taken with Senators Bob and Elizabeth Dole, if applicable.
-If the hubs have extra water bottles in their coolers, assist in ensuring the veterans have water during their time at the WWII Memorial.
-Keep an eye out to ensure the veterans don’t wander away from the WWII Memorial. They all normally have same color t-shirts, or polo shirts or baseball caps showing where they are from. They will be wearing lanyards with their names and their hub name on it.
-If they are eating at the WWII Memorial they normally eat on the Atlantic side of the WWII Memorial where there is shade, you can assist Ace who delivers the Arby’s lunchboxes to the veterans.
– Walk around and talk to the veterans, they love to tell stories! If you are wearing your uniform, the WWII Veterans love posing for pictures with you!
-Explain items of interest about the WWII Memorial.
-Children are welcome and you can even bring your High School students who need to fill community service hours. Military members typically wear camo/utilities but appropriate civilian attire is acceptable as well. Feel free to come out for as little or as much time as you want! Thank you!
I would be honored to volunteer with the honor flight at the WWII Memorial or The Vietnam Memorial….I live in Fredericksburg, Vrginia and would be driving up.
I would love to be a greeter, especially the WWII Memorial or any of the Memorials. WWII is very special to me in many ways.
