Star-Spangled Inspirational Quote
The wife of our showcased Interactive American Flag honoree, said this about her husband, GySgt Jordan, 
“He loved the Marines. He said that’s what made him what he is.  If he were here, he’d say he died doing what he was supposed to be doing.”
Today's Flag Status

An American rock music icon, Tom Petty, died on Oct 3, 2017 from an adverse drug  reactionn (taking too many pain killers).  I bet you know some of his classics, like I Wont' Back Down, Free Fallin', American Girl, and Runnin' Down a Dream
Take a moment to honor him by listening to a song or two ;)
