You're correct Matt, Flags are very personal. Especially to the people who know their country's history.

Of course I favor the American flag, but the Polish flag also has meaning to me, thnaks to my dad.

Mornin' DD. What a fiasco about these 'missing' explosives. The Dims don't care about the truth, they just spit enough out for doubt and move on. Grrrr.

...as it always stands for heroes who shed their blood for the country.

I think it's obvious that we feel the same way about our respective flags. :-)

He got that flag from the US gliding team during the 28th World Gliding Championship Leszno-Poland 2003. He has put it on the wall in his room.

Even better! It's a shame that a skill sport like gliding is not covered worth a darn in the USA.

I'm sure that these are the things that make you love your flag as it always stands for heroes who shed their blood for the country.

Very well said.

I second that. An Army at Dawn is excellent. When's the second volume due?

I share you high opinion of Gen. Franks. The Afghan and Iraqi campaigns were brilliant.
