patriot detail

today i participated in a patriot detail. patriot detail is a final send-off formation for fallen soldiers and airmen. we marched out to the aircraft and saluted the caskets as pall bearers loaded them inside. there was also a simple funeral onboard, and then the jet took off. tonight i will load our less unlucky soldiers onto a different airplane. other than that, nothing interesting to report.
