Into the Wild Blue Yonder No. 4
The U.S. Air Force Memorial, situated on high ground in Arlington County, Virginia, honors the service's history,
including from its early beginnings as an aerial recon unit of the Army Signal Corps, and those who've served.
The Memorial overlooks Arlington National Cemetery and the Pentagon, and provides
dramatic views across the Potomac to the monuments and memorials of Washington, D.C.
The Memorial features three soaring curving stainless steel spires, ranging from 201 to 270 feet, evoking the
contrails of the Air Force Thunderbirds precision flying team, peeling off in their signature "bomb-burst" maneuver.
