May 29, 2017 - A Battlefield Cross with the
U.S. and Air Force flags behind it is displayed during a
Memorial Day ceremony at Bagram Airfield, Afghanistan. The
boots, rifle and helmet make what is called the Battlefield
Cross, which is a symbolic replacement of a cross and is used to
honor and show respect to fallen comrades. (U.S. Air
