US flag bearers
Katie Ledecky and Nick Mead led Team USA as flag bearers during the ceremony.
Ledecky earned four swimming medals in Paris, bringing her career Olympic total to 14. Her haul includes golds in the 800m and 1500m freestyle, silver in the 4x200m freestyle relay and bronze in the 400m freestyle.
Mead, meanwhile, helped the U.S. end a 64-year drought by winning gold in the men's four rowing competition.
This marked the first time the U.S. has had two flag bearers for an Olympic Closing Ceremony.
