For the first time in military history, the Navy<\/a> is deploying a ceremonial flyover with only female jet pilots to honor the death of retired Capt. Rosemary Mariner, the Navy\u2019s first woman to fly a tactical fighter jet.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The flyover will take place during Mariner\u2019s funeral service in Maynardville, Tennessee, on Saturday. The aeronautic display is known as a missing man flyover<\/a> traditionally held in honor of pilots or military personnel.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Mariner, 65, died Jan. 24 after a five-year fight against ovarian cancer.<\/p>\n
