A U.S. Army veteran “dropped in” to the 80th annual Sturgis Rally in South Dakota in style. The retired Special Forces soldier, a double amputee, skydived from a plane flying a mega-sized American flag and a parachute emblazoned with “Trump 2020: Keep America Great” for all attendees to witness, while fellow veterans were on hand to catch the flag on the ground as Sergeant First Class Dana Bowman landed.

Bowman lost his legs in a mid-air collision during active service for the U.S. Army. Since then, he has logged over 4,000 parachute jumps from an airplane.
