The first was a female who jumped with an unfurled U.S. Flag. Her landing was perfect. She landed up right in the middle of the field. The others did almost as well. Two fell (nothing serious) as their feet touched the field. The Star Spangled Banner was sung as the flag was coming to earth. After performing with excellence U|^ service personnel moved bl^ to their station. Then it was time for the Elizabeth City Vikings to oppose the Hampton Institute Pirates of Hampton, Va.
