Blue Angels Pilot Killed In Crash Being Honored In Florida
DURANGO, Colo. (AP) — Durango is getting ready to honor a Blue Angels pilot killed in a crash in Tennessee last week.
Marine Capt. Jeff Kuss crashed near Nashville while taking off for a practice session ahead of a weekend air show.
The Durango Herald reports that Kuss will be buried in a private ceremony Saturday in his hometown. Residents are expected to line the streets to honor him as the motorcade passes through the city.
The ceremony will include a flyover by the Checkerboards, Kuss' unit before joining the Blue Angels.
