North Syracuse Navy Pilot To Fly Over Tonight's World Series Game
North Syracuse Navy Pilot To Fly Over Tonight's World Series Game
(THE POST-STANDARD (NY) 28 OCT 09) Charley Hannagan
North Syracuse, NY -- U.S. Navy pilot Lt. Stephen J. Raulli, a Cicero-North Syracuse High School graduate, is going to tonight’s World Series game in style.
He’s the pilot of one of three FA-18 fighter jets scheduled to fly over Yankee Stadium just as the Star Spangled Banner ends and the game between the New York Yankees and the Philadelphia Phillies begins.
The jets then land at LaGuardia Airport, where a limousine sent by the New York Yankees will pick up Raulli and his colleagues to take them to the game.
That is if all goes as planned and it doesn’t rain.
His mom, Debby Raulli of North Syracuse, couldn’t be prouder.
Stephen Raulli is a member of the Strike Fighter Squadron 11 at the Naval Air Station Oceana in Virginia Beach, Va. He telephoned his mom last week after getting his fly over assignment.
“He said ‘root for the Yankees Mom. If they’re in the World Series I’m going to do a fly over,” Debby Raulli said this morning.
“It’s pretty exciting for me. He’s done a lot of pretty amazing things,” she said of the oldest of her four children.
Stephen Raulli graduated from Cicero-North Syracuse High School in 2000. He graduated from the Naval Academy in Annapolis, Md, and went on to get a dual masters in chemical engineering and business from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Cambridge University in England, his mother said.
Stephen Raulli is stationed in Virginia Beach where he’s training to be a fighter pilot, and will probably be deployed on an aircraft carrier next year, she said.
“All he does is practice every day to protect our country,” Debby Raulli said. “This flying the airplane stuff is just fun for him.”
