Holy cow! Nice account Snippy. It's neat to see some of these guys live to receive their honors.

Morning PE. Now there's a flag I've never seen, one of the reasons your the Foxhole's Official vexillologist. :-)
It's been a while since the Rolling Wall has come through a town near me. :-) One of these days I'll get to see the real Wall.
Good flick. I own that one.

Neat. Now that's different. Good find. You are a professional aren't you. PE and PV. ;-)

I have returned and it was a very emotional and incredible experience.
I was there for the closing ceremony, at the end they made a all Veterans call up to the front.
We were Thanked by the MC and a Medal of Honor winner and a Huge round of applause from the crowd attending.
hiya miss Feather.
I'm finding there were many variations. The complete layout of our flag was not codified until 1912! Before that, quite a number differed substantially.
To me, it's Yul Brynner's signature piece.
That'll do until you get a large size.
