Paging Norman Rockwell

Little Jacob and Mary Czaja are seen offering their homemade muffins to New York State Trooper Mike Ballow, amongst one of dozens of personnel working non-stop to recover the remains of Continental Flight 3407 in upstate New York.

To me, this photo is Americana at its best. It manages to combine two of Norman Rockwell's iconic sketches.

The homespun bounty of "Freedom from Want".



As well as the transparently trusting faces of the children saluting the heroes who made it all possible, one star and stripe at a time.
