OUR FLAG - WHERE HAVE THEY GONE

Flying the flag...every day...Joe and Stella Ornalik, on Appleton, in N-Dearborn Heights, display the US Flag every day - not just on holidays. Joe is a surviving wounded POW (11 months - from WW2. He landed in Casablanca, Morocco and fought in Africa and Italy and ended up a POW in Poland, taken there in jammed packed cattle trains, in the July heat, (the same trains that took Jews to their death camps). He walked from Poland to Germany as the Russian Army advanced, into the Allied Army arms, and was taken to a military hospital - " because we were so skinny". He celebrates his flag flying in the wind.
