This Veterans Day weekend, American Airlines is hosting wounded and ill servicemembers from Walter Reed National Military Medical Center and their guests at the 13th annual Salute to the Troops event in partnership with MGM Resorts and the USO.

An all-veteran crew, who volunteered their time and talent, transported the group of 190 participants from Washington, D.C. to Las Vegas. They flew onboard Flagship Valor — an Airbus A321 with a special livery dedicated to recipients of the Medal of Honor, the highest award for military valor in action.
