The flag site exits because of the vision and dedication of
prior Committees with the generosity of the citizens of Somerset County,
PA.
The current Committee is committed to the long-term maintenance of the
flag site,
which is dedicated to all Somerset County veterans and to the flag pole
which is dedicated to the Flight 93 heroes
If successful, our work will never be finished.
