VFW presents POW-MIA flag to city
By Bob Rhoades 

On Friday morning around 10 AM a small but significant ceremony was held on the Public Square in downtown Greenville.  VFW Post 7262 Commander Scott Reed and VFW Auxiliary President Lyn Bliss presented a new POW-MIA flag to the city to fly on the Circle with the State of Ohio and U.S. flags. 

The Veterans of Foreign Wars has a commitment to forget no service man or woman and the flag serves to remind us all daily of the sacrifice our service men and women make every day, especially those who haven’t returned. 

President Lincoln summed it up… ”that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain, that this nation under God shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth.”
