I didn't realize this was happening until I ran across it on a search. 70 vintage planes flying over the most restricted airspace in the world. Should be cool. For the first time since 21 Jan 2009, I wish I was in DC.

Why are park rangers allowed to speak at these events? I’ve noticed that about the 9/11 Memorial as well.

I found it: "The first formation is estimated to be over the Lincoln Memorial
at 12:10 p.m. (EST)"
To: EternalVigilance
12:10 - 12:50 EST
From the site:
The flyover will include dozens of World War II aircraft flying in 15 historically sequenced warbird formations overhead. The formations will represent the Wars major battles, from Pearl Harbor through the final air assault on Japan, and concluding with a missing man formation to Taps. Never before has such a collection of WWII aircraft been assembled at one location, to honor the large assemblage of veterans gathered at the WWII Memorial for a ceremony. God bless the Internet today!

What a slap. Not even the spit from anyone in this travesty of an administration is worthy to shine the shoes of a single honorable WW II vet.

In the infamous words from an anti-war has been actor to one of his ‘’buddies’’ at the first clinton swearing in...... ‘’ don’t worry my friend, those are our planes now’’.

Great, thanks. I’m desk bound so the live internet feed works out. It ought to be on every media outlet, if’n you ask me. I feel better viewing from a site dedicated to the honor of the occasion.
