A drenched Air National Guard C-130 with Air Force Maj. Gen. D. Todd Kelly aboard taking his final flight, moves to park after proceeding through an arc of water sprayed from two fire trucks on the flight line of the North Carolina Air National Guard Base, Charlotte Douglas International Airport, April 12, 2017. Drenching the aircraft is a symbolic salute and a military tradition to honor retiring aviators on their final military flight.
