 Display of the Service Star Banner first came about during WWI. During WWI and WWII most flags were hand made by mothers of service members across the nation. One of the most famous banners was that of the 5 Sullivan brothers who all perished on the U.S.S. Juneau. Each blue star represents a service member in active duty. We support today's active military, veterans and families through various projects and education. We work with gratitude and love to show our children and all veterans past and present we appreciate their service. By getting involved in our local communities we do a greater service to our military past and present by educating the American people on the issues and concerns pertaining to the military, families and communities. We have a responsibility to be involved as these are our sons and daughters just as the veterans were at their time. |
