    Corporal Michael Miller, a plane captain with Marine Fighter Attack Squadron 115, 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing (Forward), salutes Capt. Justin Grissom, a VMFA-115 pilot as he taxis past, ready to embark on a combat mission. "The salute when the pilot passes is a sign of respect and it is our way of saying, your aircraft is good and you are ready to go," said Miller, a Covington, Ind., native.
