Last year the body of a WWII aviator was returned to his home town of DeFuniak Springs from Germany.

The Air Force from Eglin and Hurlburt put on a remarkable funeral. They fired the salutes and just as they finished, either 5 or 6 F-35s flew over. Then one pealed away as they passed over.

This was at Magnolia Cemetery in DeFuniak. The military really knows how to do a funeral.

The Missing Man Formation and Taps will tear your heart out.

As a grown man I cannot see or hear one of those two without shedding tears.
