A U.S. Air Force aircrew badge lies broken on the casket of U.S. Army Air Forces 2nd Lt. Ernest Vienneau, former 97th Bombardment Group pilot, during his funeral at Millinocket, Maine, Oct. 9, 2021. As a good luck tradition, initial pilot graduates break their wings into two parts. To preserve good luck, the halves should never be brought together while the pilot is alive and after their passing they are brought together for good luck in the next life.
