Retired U.S Air Force Capt. Ralph Galati, and Maj. Jason Dark, 560th Flying Training Wing, instructor pilot, taxi on the flightline upon their return from a fini-flight honoring Galati Mar. 21, 2024, at 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.
