As Beachbum said, the Honor Flight story ran for two days.
It's good that the online newspaper is by subscription only.
We can opt out at any time so we don't have to read the "skanky stuff".

Right now, these (below) are the front page headlines appearing BEFORE a story on The Villages HONOR FLIGHT. That paper loves to put this skanky stuff before decent, honorable citizen stories here.......
