These bloomed in my side yard a couple of days ago, first time since before the fire, I didn't know they were still there.

Blessings on all those heads who made that ultimate sacrifice.

And I found this video particularly analogous to our quit journey:  

"....how close and precise we can fly.  It takes a lot of discipline .... and all the movements start with a voice commands... so all the pilots are listening to the voice commands..."  (i.e. advice from Elders)

"It's hard forces on your body, but it something you get used to just like anything else you do."

"We have about 150 practices before our first show..."

Giulia‌ Absolutely breathtaking...

"Angel Flight" is the call sign for a USAF C-130, carrying a fallen hero on board. Their "salute" with flares looks like an angel with wings.#MilitaryAppreciationMonth #MemorialDay

elvan‌  Didn't know that.  How gorgeous a salute is THAT!  And thanks to you, I just came upon this with snooping further:  Angel Flight (Radio Tower Remix) - w/ Lyrics - YouTube

And then I found this:  The Angel Flight- A1C Austin Harper Gates Benson - YouTube   Just one of many who gave up their lives so that we could have ours.

Giulia‌ Those rituals are amazingly respectful and touching,  I cannot hear Taps without crying.  I remember them playing it at my father's funeral and then the gun salute that nearly made me jump out of my skin.  It was beautiful and incredibly sad.

The respect.  The dignity.  The heartbreak.  The pride.
