Commemorating the centennial of World War I

By General Aviation News Staff · April 13, 2017 ·

Star Novak sent in these photos, taken April 6, 2017, of a World War I Centennial Commemoration ceremony of the U.S.’s entry into the war at the National World War I Museum & Memorial in Kansas City, Mo.

In thanks of the US involvement in joining the war, the Patrouille de France did a commemorative fly-by of the World War 1 memorial today.
