The meaning of the American flag

Willows, CA

My name is Leo Buddy Pergson, and I am the proud grandson of Robert Pergson. Robert was a World War I veteran, 1917-1919, of Post 54, Coolidge, Ariz., to Allied France against Germany.

This is what the American flag means to us: to proudly stand and salute Old Glory as proud Americans for the stars and the stripes that proudly represent freedom for all America: "We have given our all." And what the American flag means to all families who have paid a very high price for our constitutional freedom for all America.
