    Maj. Gen. Gary Sayler presents the United States flag to Brad Fisher at the Idaho State Veterans Cemetery Aug. 25, 2014, at Boise, Idaho. While assigned to the 1st Air Commando Squadron at Pleiku, South Vietnam, he received nationwide publicity for his actions during the battle of A Shau Valley in which he rescued a downed pilot by landing his A-1E Skyraider on a shrapnel-ridden runway and under heavy ground fire.

    A military funeral or memorial service is taking place outdoors, with three large American flags displayed on poles. Several individuals wearing veteran motorcycle club vests, including POW-MIA and USMC patches, stand with their backs to the camera facing a hearse and a gathered crowd. The setting appears to be a cemetery or memorial park with green trees and a building in the background.
    A crowd of people gathers outdoors at what appears to be a military or patriotic ceremony, watching a formation of aircraft fly overhead. Multiple American flags and at least one blue flag (possibly Air Force) are visible on poles in the foreground. The event takes place in a hilly, semi-arid landscape under a partly cloudy sky.
