    Four hundred U.S. flags and more than 500 family members and friends waited four hours beyond the scheduled return time to offer a belated ‘homecoming ceremony’ to the veteran honorees of Mid-Michigan Honor Flight #10 which flew into Michigan’s Cherry Capital Airport at Traverse City. The Veterans and Guardians returned shortly before midnight to a packed terminal of supporters, grateful for their military service. (Michigan National Guard photo by Sgt. Sarah Davis)
