The nation's oldest living female World War II veteran will be in D.C. Friday to visit the memorials along the National Mall and get a tour of the White House.

The 108-year-old woman, Lucy Coffey, will fly first class from San Antonio to Washington on a trip arranged in part by an Honor Flight group in Texas, according to a report from the San Antonio Express-News.

Coffey, who was a sergeant in the Women's Army Auxiliary Corps, was awarded two bronze stars for her service in the Pacific.

She will visit the World War II Memorial and Arlington National Cemetery before heading to the White House where a meeting with President Obama is a possibility.
