This one hits close to home - like all the severe thunderstorms which have pummeled the heartland USA lately.
From the LS Tribune: "Unfortunately, the storm on Friday evening, May 24 destroyed the
entire display. The members of Jack Ray Post 5789 sincerely thank all
the volunteers that helped retrieve the flags in the rain Friday night
and collect the poles on Saturday morning.
Anyone interested in supporting the purchase of materials to rebuild
the Avenue of Flags can send a donation to VFW Post 5789, 329 SE Douglas
St, Lee’s Summit, MO 64063."
