This 60'
X 30', 92 lb. American Flag was donated to a Ground Zero volunteer from New York City during the rescue and recovery operations
after the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. It was unfurled on a building overlooking the World Trade Center site,
and for over two months, it helped give all who were there the strength and courage to continue the task before them
"And our flag...we caught our breath, and uncovered our heads, and couldn't
speak, for a moment, for the thought of what it was to us and the great ideals it stood for." - Mark Twain
