KY has refused to fly the POW flag over the memorial (beautiful one too) in Lexington as well. The governor (Patton...no relationship to the famous general and patriot) and ther Lt Gov (who is now married to Heather French, former Miss America and one of the biggest POW/MIA activists in the country...but she can't seem to sway them either), and both the state loegislature and the state memorial committee) have been approached by a large group of veterans (meself included) for four years running. Their red tape and tossing aside has angered the Hell out of us...now the mayor (different issue...this one is city hall, the other the memorial) refuses as well and doesn't give a damn! The only response I ever received was that the POW/MIA flag would "detract from the US and state flags"...now the mayor says the flag is offensive??? FREEP!!!! This is plain degrogatory and a slap to all veterans and thir familes, people!!!!! HELP US GET THIS FLAG FLYING WHERE IT SHOULD BE FLYING! THANKS!
