Flying American Flags


Last year I began flying American Flags. What happens on a typical flight is before the mission begins we take the picture of us holding the flag next to the aircrafts name. Once the picture is taken we hang the flag on the ceiling in the middle of the aircraft throughout the whole flight. After the mission, we fold the flag, I make a certificate with the picture taken, and the names of all the crew on the aircraft that took part in the flight. I wish that I could include more details on the mission and what actually took place but that's just not possible. I've always enjoy flying America Flags. Last tour I flew 52 and hope that this 15 months I'll fly even more. So far I'm up to 8 Flags Flown and will continue to fly them until I leave or am told not to.
