MoH Recipient Wins Battle to Keep Flag Pole

A little good news for a change!

RICHMOND, Va. — A 90-year-old Medal of Honor recipient can keep his 21-foot flagpole in his front yard after a homeowner's association dropped its request to remove it, a spokesman for Democratic Virginia Sen. Mark Warner said Tuesday.

The Sussex Square homeowners' association likewise has agreed to drop threats to take legal action against retired Army Col. Van T. Barfoot, Warner spokesman Kevin Hall said.


How any American could be against the flag is puzzling. How anyone with an ounce of sense would try to deny that privilege to a Medal of Honor recipient is just plain nuts! Congratulations, Col. Barfoot!
