In Honor and Support of our Brave Soldiers Now Serving

Yesterday I saw an unfamiliar flag fluttering on its pole attached to a third-floor apartment building windowsill. It being a beautiful, sunny day in the San Francisco Bay, with clear blue skies and a light afternoon breeze giving the flittering flag a majestic look against a classic 1907 yellow brick facade (The Saratoga).

What I discovered upon searching online is this is the Service Flag, also known as the Blue Star Flag. It is displayed in or outside windows of families who have members serving in the United States Armed Forces for the duration of any conflict the U.S. is involved in. 

Although nobody should like war, {with the exception of leaderships with narcissistic, corrupt, dictatorial agendas} citizens should be thankful for those service members willing to put their lives on the line protecting their country, so that they and their families can live free and in peace.

We citizens of this great nation salute those service members and their families for their sacrifices.
