    U.S. Air National Guard Lt. Col. Jordan Cayton, a pilot assigned to the 103rd Airlift Wing, Connecticut flies C-130H in a ten ship formation flyover in France, June 7, 2026. The flyover honored veterans and service members while recognizing the enduring gratitude of Normandy communities. Even 82 years later, the people of Normandy welcome Americans not just as Allies, but as family, reflecting the enduring bonds forged through the liberation of Europe.

    A military pilot is seated in the cockpit of an aircraft in flight, wearing a flight suit, Bose headset, sunglasses, and a black baseball cap. A blue and gold patch is visible on his left shoulder, and cockpit instrumentation is visible to his right. Through the windscreen, green agricultural fields below and another aircraft in the distance are visible.
    Two military personnel in olive green flight suits are inside what appears to be a military aircraft cargo bay or interior. The individual on the left is pointing upward at equipment while holding a tablet device, appearing to instruct or brief the person on the right. The person on the right is wearing aviation headphones and also holding a tablet, suggesting a training or inspection scenario.
    A military turboprop transport aircraft, consistent with a C-130 Hercules configuration, is photographed in flight under overcast skies. The aircraft displays an American flag on its tail fin and appears to be in a gray military paint scheme. A hazy, green landscape is visible far below.
    The image is taken from inside a military aircraft looking out through the windscreen or window at a formation of what appear to be C-130 Hercules turboprop transport aircraft flying in formation over a coastal or oceanic environment. At least four aircraft are visible, with one prominent in the foreground-right and two to three more visible in the mid-left distance. The sky is overcast and hazy, with a coastline or sandbar faintly visible on the horizon.
    A military pilot is seated in the cockpit of an aircraft, wearing a flight suit, aviation headset with boom microphone, sunglasses, and a baseball cap. The cockpit features modern avionics including digital navigation displays and mapping screens. A second crew member is partially visible on the right side of the frame.
