A feature of living near the Pentagon is the constant low-altitude fly-bys of military helicopters. I love it. But a few deep-blue northern Virginians - including it's congresspeople - don't.
Having lived in southern Delaware for the decade of the 90's, I must say I appreciate your sentiment. Protecting our shores was Dover AFB, so we had dual F-16 flybys all day, every day. It made me feel safe, and really I loved seeing the gigantic troop carriers lumbering through the skies. Every time I saw them, I would think to myself, now that's my tax dollars at work that I can easily put my arms around.

I was always proud to have our windows rattle daily from the traffic from El Toro MCAS, especially the Blue Angels!
