The day this episode is released, June 14th, is Flag Day, and it's the first Flag Day to be observed at Batavia's brand new Flag Day Monument. Meanwhile, across the lawn of the Pegbond Center, a few other flags are flying.
What is it about flags that instills such reverence in those whose community they represent?And what role do flags play in this community?
Over the course of two episodes this month, I'll ask these questions of a variety of people and share their point of view.
This week I spoke to Marty Callahan, Linda Sheilke, and Austin Dempsey about the American flag, the designation of Flag Day, and Batavia's monument to Flag Day.
