POW Flag

The POW/MIA (Prisoners of War/Missing In Action) Flag calls to mind the sacrifice and plight of those Americans who have sacrificed their own freedom, to preserve liberty for all of us.  It’s presence serves to remind us that, while we enjoy the privileges of freedom, somewhere there are soldiers who have not been accounted for and may, in fact, be held against their will by the enemies of Freedom.

As our fledgling country was evolving and trying to establish an identity of its own, so, too, were the different armed forces that would be needed to protect it. Along with the evolution of the national flag for our country, the “Stars and Stripes,” came the need to develop a way to identify each of the military service branches through the adoption of a flag.
