Photographer’s remark

¡¡¡LA AVIACIÓN, VANGUARDIA DE LA PATRIA!!! ("Aviation: Fatherland´s Vanguard, the Uruguayan Air Force Motto).Photo taken by my father, Roberto "Gringo" Figueredo Broch. The Hercules performed a beautiful flypast over our National Symbols after dropping more than 30 parachutists. The airshow was organised to celebrate the FAU´s (Uruguayan Air Force) 84th.Anniversary, and it was the first chance that I had to see the Esquadrilha da Fumaça display.
