Military performs flyover with ‘Missing Man’ formation to honor school shooting victims, mournful community

OXFORD, Mich. – The military’s “Missing Man” formation, which dates back to World War II, is an aerial tip of the cap to those who have lost their lives.

The symbolic scenery of a singular aircraft breaking formation while leaving the others to soar skyward leaves behind a tearful joy.

The formation flew over Oxford on Thursday, two days after the tragic event at Oxford High School where a classmate fatally shot four students and wounded seven others.
