美國海軍的「藍天使」和空軍的「雷鳥」2020年4月28日飛越紐約市、新澤西州、費城，向抗疫的一線人員致敬，留下難得一見的精彩畫面。
美國總統特朗普上4月22日在白宮抗疫小組簡報會上宣佈，美國海軍的「藍天使」（Blue Angels）和美國空軍的「雷鳥」（Thunderbirds）將飛越主要城市的上空，做飛行表演，向在第一線工作的醫護人員致敬。
「這是對他們的敬意，對我們的戰士們表示敬意，因為他們和那些令人難以置信的飛行員一樣，都是為我們贏得更多傳統戰鬥的戰士。」特朗普說。
4月28日美東時間中午12點，雷鳥小組和藍天使組成飛行隊，在紐約市、新澤西州、費城上空進行飛行表演，向一線人員致敬，持續約40分鐘。

任務指揮官、雷鳥中校約翰·考德威爾（John Caldwell）說：「我們真的很高興能與海軍同行一起飛上天空，向在全國範圍內維護社區安全的人員致敬。」
「我們希望給美國人展示出美國的決心，向那些與COVID-19（中共病毒，又俗稱武漢病毒、新冠病毒）戰鬥的前線服役人員致敬，觸動美國人的心靈。」他說。
Politico新聞軍事記者Dave Brown及「今日美國」在推特上傳「藍天使」飛行員當天從駕駛艙記錄的畫面。
