Look Up at the Sky to See a Military Tribute to Northern California this Weekend
A military flyover conducted by Beale Air Force Base will take to the skies of Northern California this weekend to show support for local healthcare workers and first responders during the Covid-19 pandemic, as well as those staying at home to “flatten the curve†of the virus.
The Recce Town T-38s and 9th Reconnaissance Wing will be performing a formation flyover throughout NorCal on Saturday, May 9th between noon and 1 pm.
