Walters' Final Flight Ends an Era | Reno News
Description
After 42 years of service, Chief Warrant Officer Five Dan Walters took his final flight over Nevada’s iconic landscapes before retiring from the Army National Guard — a career defined by grit, mentorship, and two tours in Afghanistan. His last mission, piloting a Chinook over Lake Tahoe and Carson City, ended with a ceremonial water salute, honoring a legend whose experience and wisdom were irreplaceable. Though he’s stepping away from the Guard, Walters is staying airborne — now flying for the Washoe County Sheriff’s Office — ensuring his legacy soars on.
