Secretary of War delivered a patriotic and unapologetic statement regarding recent military flyovers.
Members of the military have caught the American spirit, as seen with the recent military flyovers, including one that flew low and dazzled beachgoers in South Carolina over Independence Day weekend celebrations.
Eight pilots from the National Guard were suspended over the incident until Hegseth stepped in.
“We’ll fix this. Carry on, Patriots.” Hegseth posted on X.
And let’s not forget about the flyovers in New York City over the Fourth.
I’m sorry America is happening to you

Before that, Hegseth nixed the probe over pilots that playfully and patriotically buzzed Kid Rock’s home in Nashville.
And the American spirit in the skies continued on Wednesday when the Blue Angels delighted Florida beachgoers with some impressive moves.
ABC News shared footage, reporting that Blue Angels leadership is “reviewing the circumstances surrounding the maneuver and conducting a thorough safety review.”

But all is well according to Hegseth.
The flyovers will continue until morale improves.

Floridian here: no Florida native voiced a complaint about our heroes training or entertaining the beach crowds!

I was at the naval base in Pensacola and got a low flyover when the Blue Angels were practicing right down the main drag. I was all by myself, it was like they did it for ME. It was the best 5 seconds of my life! The whole campus heard me screaming with joy.

Keep the flyovers coming loud and low.
Displays like that remind everyone what real American power looks like and lift spirits fast.
