Flying the colors.
I sent my son serving in Afganistan my Marine Corps flag to fly over the battle field. He sent me a picture taken by his wing man. They issue a letter of authenticity with the date and location of flight. I thought it pretty cool.

Re: Flying the colors.
My son sent some update pictures from Afghanistan. He got to spend some of our tax dollars shooting off some rockets. He is also training some new crew members. One is a 5'2" woman, my son is 6'4". They make an interesting team.
