This display of American Flags is part of the traveling memorial "Field of Honor" that is presented by the Veterans of Oregon. This particular exhibit was taking place in Burns, Oregon. The Veterans of Oregon organization is a non-profit group of veterans from every era who help out their fellow veterans in times of need. Flags displayed at the "Fields of Honor" traveling display can be sponsered by individuals and organizations. I happened to be in Burns today and while driving past their display, I just had to pull over and get some snapshots. The veterans that I met their are a very friendly group of fellows and are happy to explain to anybody who asks the meaning and significance of this display and their organization. More information about them can be found at their website.
