Pow/mia

In 1990 Congress passed a law recognizing the National League of Families' designation of the 3rd Friday in September as POW/MIA Day in the U.S. Pictured is the veteran's memorial on the Lake Wales (Fla) city hall lawn showing the POW/MIA flag properly displayed beneath the stars and stripes. Flags of all military branches flank the center pole. Prisoners and those missing will be honored this year on September 18th.

Yet again, you manage graphics and dialogue that compliment and relay the message you wish to put across to us all.

Once more well done, and thanks for the share.
