SHHH! Don’t let Gwynn find out – it’s a surprise!

WHAT: Honor Flight of Syracuse is excited to announce its Centenarian Salute to war hero Gwynn Morey
on Wednesday, December 15th at 1:00 p.m. at the Greenpoint Assisted Living Facility in Liverpool. Honor
Flight Syracuse and Gwynn’s family are trying to keep this a surprise for Gwynn.
Born on December 17, 1918, Morey served his country courageously and selflessly in the U.S. Army,
entering the service in 1941 and serving three years in the Pacific Theatre, fighting in the Battle of
Treasury Islands. During his active duty, he earned the Good Conduct Medal, an American Defense
Service Ribbon, and Asiatic Pacific Ribbon with 2 Bronze Stars and 5 Overseas Bars. To help us celebrate,
Honor Flight’s team of volunteers have coordinated a special caravan with music serenade, in addition
to a special Flag Proclamation from Congressman John Katko presented by the 174th ATKW Honor
Guard.
Honor Flight Syracuse (HFS) is asking the public to support this special outdoor salute. To show support
and help celebrate, guests are invited to gather at the Greenpoint Assisted Living Facility, or join the
caravan of supporters gathering prior at Ichiban Restaurant, 302 Old Liverpool Road, Liverpool, NY
13088 at 12:30 p.m. HFS encourages the media and public wear masks and social distance during this
Centurion Salute.
