A bomber from the American Airpower Museum, escorted by other historic aircraft, will drop flowers in the waters near the site of the World Trade Center. The flight will pay tribute to seven operatives who died Dec. 30 in Afghanistan. The attack at a forward operating base in Khost province was the deadliest against the CIA since the 1983 bombing of the U.S. embassy in Beirut. It also came a week after a failed plan to bomb a Northwest Airlines plane bound for Detroit on Christmas Day by a Nigerian who has been linked to al-Qaeda. CIA Director Leon Panetta expressed gratitude in his Memorial Day message over the weekend for the "countless expressions of gratitude and sympathy throughout America" since the attack in Khost. "Tributes like [the B-17 flight] celebrate not only the CIA heroes known to the American people, but those whose names and accomplishments must remain secret," Panetta added. The U.S.-led war in Afghanistan is now in its ninth year. President Barack Obama announced his decision last December to deploy 30,000 more soldiers to the war-torn nation and begin drawing down forces in 2011.
