U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt. Casarah Pine, a flight instructor for the USAF Honor Guard at Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling, holds an abalone bowl with sage to burn for an energy cleansing at the Native American Veterans Memorial in Washington, D.C., Nov. 7, 2024. Sage burning, or smudging, is essential in Native American culture as it serves as a deeply symbolic and spiritual practice that serves as a tool for healing, cleansing, and connecting to the spirit world.
