Donald G. Stratton American Legion Post 238 Post Adjutant and Nebraska District 10 Vice Commander Mike Goebel accepted a check today from the Webster County VFW Auxiliary Post 5641 to purchase 40 new flags for the Red Cloud Cemetery "Avenue of Flags" that are displayed every Memorial Day weekend. Last year we were able to purchase 40 flags thanks to a generous donation from the Strobl family to begin our transition to all weather nylon flags. All names will be transferred from the old cotton flags to the new nylon flags. We will be offering the retired flags with names back to the families in the near future. This is a great joint venture that ensures the future of our flag display for years to come. Thank you to Barb Goebel and Terry Stokes not only for making this happen, but also for your commitment to helping out the Veterans of Webster County!
