Luke Air Force Base will help stage flyover for Super Bowl ceremonies abc15
LUKE AIR FORCE BASE, AZ — An event as big as the Super Bowl can’t happen without getting the U.S. Military involved. This year the game is taking place in Glendale near Luke Air Force Base, which will serve as the station for the flyover.Master Sergeant Shawna Johnson is the deputy airfield manager on base.
"We have a ton of different squadrons here that fly in addition to transient aircraft. We had the president come in, the vice president come in, and now we're supporting the Super Bowl," MSgt Johnson said. The base is located about seven miles west of State Farm Stadium, which is host to Super Bowl LVII on Sunday.
One of the best pregame traditions is the military flyover at the end of the National Anthem — and this year, the honor goes to the U.S. Navy.
