July 2, 2009 10:42 a.m. | Port Washington — Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Jeff Suppan has donated $10,000 toward the next Stars and Stripes Honor Flight, a Port Washington-based program that offers World War II veterans free one-day excursions to Washington, D.C., to visit their memorial and other sites.

Suppan's gift was made through Brewers Charities, an arm of the Milwaukee Brewers.

The Stars and Stripes Honor Flight has made three flights so far to the nation's capital since it was formed last year. So far, about 250 veterans have made the trip. The group, which is part of a national network, plans another flight on Sept. 26.
