Family in Flight: Father and Daughter Flight Surgeons Fly Side-by-Side

Cmdr. Layne Crowe and his daughter, Lt. Sierra Crowe, were able to fly side-by-side this past April in New Orleans with Fighter Attack Squadron (VFA) 204, a Navy Reserve adversary squadron operating the F/A-18 Hornet, making for one of the most memorable father-daughter experiences the two have shared.

Talk about a great parent-child deployment opportunity! This one has left unforgettable memories -- Layne Crowe was in New Orleans obtaining annual flight time with VFA-204 and assisting the squadron with their medical readiness. Sierra Crowe was able to join the squadron for the flight, gaining valuable experience in the air as she prepares for her new role as a Navy flight surgeon.
