Marine Corps Lance Corporal Jim Weinstein enlisted in the Marines to escape a troubled youth full of drink and drugs. Jim endured many close calls on the battlefields of Vietnam including one that resulted in his family receiving an erroneous death notice. All of it added up to another battle with PTSD following his service. Jim says of his Honor Flight Chicago experience: "For 50 years after I got back I couldn't cry. It's now six days after my flight, and I still have a lump in my throat that I hope never goes away."
