A Soldier from the 1st Brigade at Fort Riley, Kansas, salutes the flag in the lap of Scott Jefferson, the grandson of 1st Lt. Herbert Tennyson, a World War II pilot, during his grandfather’s internment in Wichita, Kansas, June 27, 2025. The Soldiers performed military honors, including a six-man flag fold, firing party and the playing of taps during the internment. Tennyson was a B-24D Liberator pilot that was shot down on March 11, 1944, off the coast of Papua New Guinea, and his remains were finally returned to his hometown and family.
