Special Photo. Conyers resident and World War II veteran Ray Powell, center, with fellow veterans George Musick, left, and Leon Manry, both of Barnesville, are shown at the World War II Memorial in Washington, D.C. The men, along with other WWII veterans, traveled to Washington last month by Honor Air as part of an effort to send the veterans to the memorial that honors them and those who died during the war. Powell, a Marine veteran, and Musick and Manry, both Navy veterans, were escorted during the trip by Georgia State Patrol Trooper S.B. Short, who volunteered for the flight.
