A few years ago, an indignant neighbor wrote to our local paper, wondering who could stoop so low as to steal her flag. It was at a makeshift roadside memorial she set up, after her party, where two friends got drunk, drove off the junction next to one of our farms, and one was killed, the other paralyzed. Next week, my letter appeared. I said I stopped, and yes, I stooped, to retrieve the flag from the mud it was in, courtesy of its cheap Chinese standard, after a wind and rain storm. It is under cover, protected from the elements, in our garage, and awaiting her retrieval. Still there, about 4 years later! Local editor also printed a narrative I provided him from an Army Captain at Ft. Campbell, KY, home of the 101st Airborne Division. Captain was perturbed to see a Private snarl traffic during a rainstorm, to run across a field..., until he realized the Private"s mission-to set right one of the small flags honoring six service members killed in a training accident. Came to, saluted, and marched crisply back to his car, soaking wet. Captain said he learned an awful lot from a private that day! Anyone wanting to learn about flag respect should read John McCain"s book, and the story of a fellow captive, beaten to no end for making a flag, then starting to make another when the swelling in his eyes allowed him to see a bit again.
