Stars and Stripes
“I thank God for my life,
and for the stars and stripes—may freedom forever fly, let it ring.
Salute the ones who died,
and the ones who gave their lives
so we don’t have to sacrifice
all the things we love…” Zac Brown Band (Chicken Fried)
We flew this flag yesterday in honor of Memorial Day, but in 2008, it flew on my husband’s plane during his first deployment. He and his crew flew it proudly over Iraq (Operation Iraqi Freedom) and Afghanistan (Operation Enduring Freedom).
Beautiful photos. I love that song too.
How beautiful!
Gorgeous pictures! What a story behind that flag! And I love that song!
I love those pictures and that song! I bought a big red-white-and-blue ribbon to hang on my door… mine lacks the cool story though 🙂 I'd be very proud of that particular flag too.
