Creating an awe-inspiring panorama, United States flags will fly in a solemn formation at Keach War Memorial, West Street during May of 2021. This stirring display of 500 flags will bring the community together in a patriotic tribute to honor our heroes. Each U.S. flag represents an individual and tells a story. Flags may be sponsored to honor individuals currently serving in our military, veterans, Fallen Servicemen & Women, first responders, heroes in our lives, and hometown heroes. This unique event is the perfect opportunity for all of us to remember and honor our many heroes.
The Stars & Stripes reminds us of who we are as a people. Americans meet the challenges of history and overcome hardships becoming stronger. That is just who we are. The United States flag represents our solidarity in creating a brighter tomorrow and uniting us all.
This moving display is a gift to the community made possible through donations, sponsorships and the efforts of many dedicated volunteers. You can show your support and gratitude by sponsoring a flag or making a donation.
Funds raised benefit those honored through donations to an array of veteran’s programs. Gifts to a veterans’ home, support of veterans’ outings and grants to local military recruit upon their completion of initial training are but a few of the areas of assistance given.
This is an experience hard to describe, but never to be forgotten. We invite all to visit the Mansfield Field of Honor® patriotic display and walk with us among the posted flags.
The display is open to all without charge. Don’t miss it!
