Ole Glory An ActiveRain contest

Our local Veterans Association fly this flag at the War Memorial in Berwyn, PA. The frame is designed to look like a Conestoga wagon. Conestoga is the name of our local high school, winner of many awards, and a leading school for many years in the nation.

The names of all those who have served from the Township are inscribed in the bride over the train tracks and in Wilson Farm Park in Tredyffrin, including my son, Jeremy. In Wilson Farm Park, the Veterans fly a Garrison flag, a large flag usually flown at military bases. 

This is my entry for this week in the monthly contest.

Hi Nick- I love how the names of those who served from your township are inscribed on the bridge. This is one of the most intriguing displays of the flag I've seen.

That is a very cool-looking frame and certainly draws attention to Ole Glory, as it should.

Nick Vandekar, 610-203-4543 - I was so intrigued by the War Memorial and after learning it's background for the frame representing the Conestoga Wagon and your local high school, "winner of many awards," it makes it all even more special. I believe community involvement is what drives people to move to your area. What a great entry!

Kathy Streib I like the whole memorial, we often have services on the different days at this memorial, all the traffic stops and watches as wreaths get laid and there is a flag ceremony from the local VFW.

Ray Henson thanks for stopping by.

Kat Palmiotti it does make a great frame.

Dorie Dillard Austin TX it ties into the name of the local High School, so there is history in the memorial as well.

Brian England when we have services there everyone stops to watch.
