I bet Emma Didlake never thought she’d be famous

Emma Didlake is 110 years old and she’s headed for the White House!

It is believed that Ms. Didlake is the oldest livingUS Military Veteran. Two years ago she was honored with the James Weldon Johnson Lifetime Achievement Award and now she’ll meet the President.

At 38 years old with five children, Ms. Didlake was inspired to do more. She joined WAAC in 1943. She joined NAACP in Detroit in 1944 and marched with Dr. Martin Luther King in 1963.

Emma Didlake’s trip to Washington DC is sponsored by Honor Flight and arranged by Talons Out.

I’m sure it will be such and honor for President Obama to meet this awesome Veteran.
