I suppose that this is somewhat predictable, given the Swiss association with the Pope.
Swiss AF plane T-785 landed at Ciampino Airport, SW of Rome.

He (or maybe Matthew McConaghey) is who I would pick to play Trey Gowdy in a movie version of this.
This. We need lots of this.
This also never gets old…coming soon…
Epic amounts of laser-sharp forensic questioning… there will be no escape.
In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.
That may explain it better, lest we forget…
More than we need and those that we deserve.

Dad was military and I never forget Remembrance Sunday. We have a Westie (now aged 13) named Poppy, that we got on a Remembrance Sunday all those years ago.
