DALLAS (1080 KRLD) - Doctors, nurses and former patients all watched the Navy Blue Angels tribute flyover this morning from the roofs of parking garages all across North Texas. 

Crowds gathered in field and parking lots from Baylor Scott and White in Dallas to Texas Health Alliance in Fort Worth, and the folks young and old watched in amazement as six Blue Angels jets flew by in perfect formation.

Doctors, nurses, families & former patients all watched from the top of a garage at Baylor. A doctor said the flyover on a warm, sunny day helped relieve stress. “Even with current research, there’s still that case of not knowing what will happen.” Live report at 11:30 on @KRLD. pic.twitter.com/XqayGXGn9f

 All of this was in support of the doctors, nurses, and all health care professionals that are putting their lives on the line during this COVID-19 pandemic. 

One Doctor said the flyover gave everyone a break from the stress of the past few weeks.
