Photos on Friday: U.S. Army Golden Knights show in Manassas (2012)


In 2012 we attended the Wings, Wheels & Warriors Air Show and one of the (many terrific) performers that day was the U.S. Army Golden Knights. I wrote about the team in 2012 on Digital Journal after seeing the show and had corresponded with an Army spokesperson to learn more about the team's history and mission

(Fun fact: Some of the individuals who have jumped with the team include 41st President George H.W. Bush, Chuck Norris, Geraldo Rivera and Bill Murray).  

Today's Photos on Friday flashes back to the Golden Knight's performance in Manassas, Virginia on May 12, 2012.

For more information on upcoming airshows in 2015 - please see my recent post highlighting local shows this year: 2015 air shows and events in the Washington DC region
