During Memorial Day activities, please take a bit of time to reflect on the 
military personnel past & present who have died in defense of our country. 
IF possible please consider attending a Memorial service in your geographic 
location.

See the following references for casualty statistics from WW I onward:

OF course, there will also be a number of flyovers for these services so 
should you be able to monitor appropriate Air Traffic Control, as well as 
tactical military operation with your scanner(s).

For example the 104FW Barnes (A10's), will be staging out of Westover JARB, 
MA this weekend to provide support.  The 103 FW Bradley (CT) (A10's), will 
be flying out of Bradley IAP as usual.  I would suspect that even ARNG Helo 
units and other fighter units throughout the nation will be flying support 
"Memorial fly overs".
