Retired U.S Air Force Capt. Ralph Galati, (center) a former Vietnam war POW and F-4 Phantom pilot, poses for a photo with current USAF instructor pilots during the 51st annual Freedom Flyer Mar. 21, 2024, Joint Base San Antonio Randolph. Galati was shot down over North Vietnam in 1972 and was a POW for 14 months. The 560th Flying Training Squadron hosts the annual Freedom Flyer reunion, a gathering to reunite and honor Vietnam War era aviator POWs. The 3-day event included a “fini-flight” or final flight, which traditionally celebrates a military aviator's final combat mission or transition to retirement, a tradition many Vietnam War era aviator POWs missed.
