Wright-Patterson Air Force Base honors America’s fallen heroes on Memorial Day through a hand-drawn stained-glass illustration. The graphic depicts a red poppy, headstone, Wright Flyer, and F-35 in the foreground, with sunlight breaking through clouds on the left and transitioning into a waving American flag on the right. The red poppy symbolizes the blood shed by those who fought and those who continue to fight for our nation. The Wright Flyer represents the rich history of Wright-Patterson AFB, while the F-35 reflects the base’s enduring role in today’s Air Force mission and the future of airpower. The graphic was created in Adobe Photoshop on May 20, 2025 at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio, and intended for use by the 88th Air Base Wing and all unit on the base.
