A B-52 “Stratofortress” flew over Arlington National Cemetery at 11:40 this morning in honor of retired Air Force Colonel Thomas Mounts.

Mounts, a Vietnam veteran, was buried in Section 38 today after a service at Ft. Myer’s Old Post Chapel.

      Thank you, Mike. I’ve been trying to figure out where to find that exact info for *years*.
