Double-amputee veteran skydives above Sturgis rally with giant US flag, Trump 2020 pa
Double-amputee veteran skydives above Sturgis rally with giant US flag, Trump 2020 parachute

Some nice news this morning

https://www.foxnews.com/us/double-am...lag-trump-2020

"A skydiver with two prosthetic legs jumped out of an airplane to carry a huge American flag down to the 80th Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in South Dakota over the weekend....."

"...Sgt. 1st Class Dana Bowman, is a former Special Forces soldier and a member of the Army’s Golden Knights parachute team, which is also how he lost his legs. He suffered the injuries in a mid-air collision during a Golden Knights training incident that left a fellow skydiver dead...."

THAT is very cool! Thanks for the happy wake-up.

(And that's one way to avoid the reservation checkpoints.)
