Press Pool reports Williams is aboard Air Force One accompanying Pres to WWII anniversary event.

Met a living legend today — Medal of Honor recipient Hershel “Woody” Williams. As we celebrate the 75th anniversary of US victory in WWII, it’s bittersweet, knowing so few of the Greatest Generation are still w/us. Honored to elbow bump this American hero & treasure

Guests gathering alongside battleship USS North Carolina on Cape Fear River. Was commissioned in April 1941. Decommissioned in June 1947. Took part in the battles of Guadalcanal and the Eastern Solomons, among other assignments during WWII.

I’m looking at a lot of people gathered here....seemingly virtually mask-free. Gads! Next thing you know they’ll be getting their hair done!

Our side is proud of being an American and proud of our heritage and proud of what our military has done to help the world gain freedom. Their side supports rioting and destruction and negativity. It is so unfortunate that good people on their side are willfully ignorant of the wonderful speeches and gatherings by President Trump due to the propaganda media (their choice to watch) never showing them.
