U-2 Dragon Lady Returns to Beale Skies

The nose of a U-2 Dragon Lady displays a tribute to Lt. Col. Ira S. Eadie, former 1st Reconnaissance Squadron U-2 pilot, on the flightline at Beale Air Force Base, Calif., Sept. 23, 2016. The nose art was flown today over Beale as the first launched U-2 since Eadie passed away during an aircraft crash Sept. 20, 2016. The history of nose art on aircraft dates back to World War I and has since been a tradition meant to boost morale and remember fallen service members. (US Air Force courtesy photo)
