(From left) Clyde Mathe, Donald Meck and Durward Swanson, B-17 crew members during World War II, render honors during the singing of the national anthem at a reception in the Museum of Aviation in Warner Robins, Ga., Aug. 21. The reception honored veterans who served aboard B-17s and celebrated the arrival of a B-17 Flying Fortress which will be displayed at the museum. The engines, wings and tail section of the aircraft -- which arrived a day earlier -- were on display during the reception. At the event, several B-17 crew members shared their memories of the aircraft with nearly 200 attendees. (U.S. Air Force photo by Tommie Horton)
