Fighter jets at Terminal E

Roman the roving UHub photographer spotted fighter jets sitting on the tarmac by Terminal E this morning. WBZ reports the jets are here to honor Capt. Richard Stratton, a Vietnam War Navy veteran and Quincy native who died last week at 93.

I'm clearly spending too much time on UHub because it's invaded my dreams - last night I dreamed the "likes" were back and I was happy to be able to like someone's comment!

I thought the skies were a bit loud this morning as I was doing my errands. There were a few jets taking off from Westover it looked like they had a point and a purpose.

It’s funny that I still remember the sound of these types of jets from growing up near the Naval Air Station in South Weymouth.
