U.S. Airforce Col. Wayde Minami, director of public affairs with the Maryland Air National Guard’s 175th Wing, talks with Jerry Bakke, an 83-year-old North Dakotan-Vietnam veteran who served as an infantryman for six years with the U.S. Marines’ I39 India Company, 3rd Battalion, 9th Marines during their visit to the Maryland Museum of Military History at the Fifth Regiment Armory in Baltimore, on May 10, 2024. “[My trip to Washington has] been unbelievable,” said Bakke. “Meeting the young kids, having them shake our hands, and thanking us has been a memorable experience.” HFA, a volunteer-based organization, dedicates itself to transporting as many United States military veterans as possible to see the memorials of the respective wars they fought in Washington, at no cost to the veteran.
