  • On June 14, 2024, Capt. Judith Neuffer Bruner was laid to rest in Section 83 of Arlington National Cemetery. Neuffer was a pioneering aviator in the U.S. Navy when she became the first woman to fly solo in an aircraft and the first to become a P-3 pilot in the Navy. One of the first women to qualify as a naval aviator in 1973, Neuffer logged several thousands of hours piloting the P-3. She was the first woman P-3 aircraft commander and the first woman to pilot an aircraft through the eye of a hurricane. She retired from the Navy in 1998 after 28 years of service. She went on to serve at NASA under a variety of assignments. We honor her service. (U.S. Army video by Daryl Vaca)

    I'm the daughter of two Navy Veterans from the Korea War. Both my mom and my dad were very proud of their service to the country in the Navy. Mom passed in 2015 and dad is still going strong at 90. Our condolences to the family of Capt. Bruner from our family. Such a role model she was.

    Very stirring to see Captain Bruner’s final disposition handled as a total United States Navy affair. The P3 was the platform for my USN rating during my service in Vietnam. An impressive and worthy aircraft. Her devotion and performance to the P3 undoubtedly matched it. Rest In Peace, Captain Bruner.

      David Althoff , remember and Google that name please. There is no one playing that bugle anymore. They all come with an MP3 ready to go once a button is pushed! The 9 gun or 21 gun salute is also done with synchronized Bluetooth. David althoff was a very good friend of mine and once he retired from the Marine Corps he became a Lay Catholic priest and he would go into care homes and nursing homes and serve the needs of the elderly Catholic patients. He was the greatest, marine aviator of all time. Just look at his Google. Hall of Fame, marine aviator of the year 21 air medals in Vietnam from his helicopter. Rescue squad.

      No they don't. My Father-in-Law served on the USS Essex from 1952-1954 as a Fireman in the boiler room. All he got at his funeral was a couple 300# reservists that did nothing more that wander around in the church lobby with the female playing on her phone. They half-assed handed my Mother-in-Law his flag and then they left. It wasn't even folded properly. He did not get his proper graveside, a Navy Chaplin or his 21.

We always treated these first women flight students as ordinary students. One I instructed was average; another was exceptional. RIP.
