PITTSBURG, Kan. — The Oceanus Hopkins Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution is dedicated to promoting Historic Preservation, education, and patriotism. To that end, members recently put together 52 goodie bags for Honor Flight Veterans and their Guardians. Working with the newly founded Little Balkans Chapter of the Sons of the American Revolution, members of both organizations purchased various snack items for Honor Flight participants to munch on during their visit to Washington, D.C.
