HONOLULU — Marines from Marine Fighter Attack Squadron 115, “Silver Eagles,” salute as the unit’s flag is presented during a wreath laying ceremony at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific in Honolulu, July 29, 2016. Marines paid tribute to 1st Lt. Jack Aldrich, who was the first pilot killed from that squadron. With a long history of participating in almost every major conflict since their formation 73 years ago, VMFA-115 honors their fallen comrade. Marines from VMFA-115, stationed aboard Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort, S.C., were in Hawaii participating in the 2016 Rim of Pacific exercise, the largest maritime exercise in the world. Between aircraft maintenance and training, Marines remembered the legacy of Aldrich. (Marine Corps Photo by Lance Cpl. Jesus Sepulveda Torres)
