That is why the cloth with the sun was on the flag presented yesterday. The flag will go to the Smithsonian, they put their logo on top of the case. Makes sense (or double meaning?)

The Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History recently acquired the 48-Star Flag of control vessel Landing Craft, Control 60 (LCC 60) that bore witness to the D-Day landings June 6, 1944.

Dutch Collector Bert Kreuk presented the flag to the Smithsonian in a July 18 ceremony at the White House following a meeting between President Donald J. Trump and Prime Minister Mark Rutte of the Netherlands.
