The article reports on the hot air balloon flight offered to U.S. soldiers from Fort Carson and their family members as part of the 2nd Annual Celebration of Honor Fly on July 26 and 27, 2008. The idea for the hot air balloon flight originated from Dave Charbonnel, a retired sergeant first class. Around 300 soldiers and their family members participated in the flight. The soldiers and their family members were also given free breakfast burritos and pastries, as well as coffee, water and Joint Juice.
