Please take a moment today to remember our Prisoners of War and those Missing in Action, their sacrifice for this country deserves our attention on this day and all others.
Observances of National POW/MIA Recognition Day will be held across the country on Military installations, ships at sea, State Capitols, schools and Veterans’ facilities.
Today is one of six days throughout the year that Congress has mandated the flying of the National League of Families’ POW/MIA Flag. The others are Armed Forces Day, Memorial Day, Flag Day, Independence Day and Veterans Day.
The POW/MIA Flag is to be flown at major Military installations, National Cemeteries, all Post Offices, VA medical facilities, the World War II Memorial, Korean War Veterans Memorial, the Vietnam Veterans Memorial, the official offices of the Secretaries of State, Defense and Veterans Aaffairs, the director of the Selective Service System and the White House.
You are not forgotten…
