Sidney Walton, from San Diego, one of America’s oldest WWII vets – honored at this year’s Super Bowl Coin Toss – is on a national No Regrets Tour (www.GoSidneyGo.com) visiting all 50 states and meeting all 50 governors in a campaign to raise awareness of the rapidly dwindling number of WWII vets. He regrets to this day missing an opportunity to meet some of the last veterans of the Civil War.
Due to the Coronavirus, Sidney invested his life savings in a brand new, 2020 Buick Enclave, got it fully wrapped (see photo below), and now travels safely across the USA.
For more information on the No Regrets Tour and to support Sidney’s campaign, go to www.GoSidneyGo.com. A portion of donations supports the American Veterans Center in Washington, D.C.
