Aero-News Quote of the Day
"We are honored to join the State of Hawaii in supporting the 75th Commemoration series of events. The World War II Warbird aerial performances are a symbolic reminder of our Greatest Generation's will and determination that ultimately led to victory. Indeed, the legacy of our World War II heroes lives on in the Pacific."
Source: ADM Phil Davidson, Commander of U.S. Indo-Pacific Command, discussing the pending arrival of 14 classic combat aircraft slated to participate in Oahu, HI, flyovers as part of the commemoration events. “Salute Their Service, Honor Their Hope” is the theme of the Commemoration in Hawaii in recognition of the veterans and civilians who participated in WWII and contributed to the actions that led to the end of the war.
