Elsewhere in the state, a KC-135 Stratotanker and F-22 Raptor fighter jets flew over other hospitals and health care centers, saying mahalo for their work during the pandemic.
The event brought many community members outdoors to watch the flyover, especially near Wilcox, where masked hospital workers and residents gathered in accordance with social distancing rules to watch the aircraft.
Giant waste of money.
It would be nice if you could tell us about these things before they happen so we could see them.
I was at the hospital with others waiting for a “”flyover”. It was a flyby and it was a bust. We saw the plane as it flew offshore. Everyone waited asking if that was it? Flyover a bust!
Thank you so much to the Air Force and Air National Guard for their kind gesture and support. We do appreciate EVERYONES support in this time of uncertainty. We’re in this together and to include us in their already scheduled training course was very appreciated. From the bottom of our hearts here on the frontlines, THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE, COMMITMENT, AND SACRIFICE.
