U.S. Marine Corps Capt. Jason Stewart, U.S. Marine Corps Forces, Central Command G-6 operations officer, speaks at a ceremony honoring his late father at MacDill Air Force Base, Florida, Sept. 1, 2022. J. Stewart’s father, Rector Stewart, was an Air Force C-130 Hercules aircraft crew chief during the Vietnam War era. On Sept. 1, 2021, J. Stewart held his father’s hand during his final moments and promised to take his ashes on a C-130 for one last flight. On Sept. 1, 2022, one year after his father’s passing, J. Stewart fulfilled his promise by taking his father’s ashes on an HC-130J Combat King II assigned to the 920th Rescue Wing, Patrick Air Force Base, Florida, that took off from MacDill AFB.
