AAFMAA Presenting the Colors & Behind the Scenes -- World's Largest American Flag

On September 9, 2011, AAFMAA sponsored the unveiling of the"Superflag", the world's largest American Flag at Fort Carson in Colorado Springs, CO. With the help of the Fort Carson MWR, 650 troops and over 400 school children, the 3,000 pound flag was unfurled at Iron Horse Park. Each star on the flag is 17 feet wide and the entire flag measures 255 feet by 505 feet -- that's almost one football field long by two football fields wide! This video captures that event as well as a history of how the flag represents the American values we hold dear.

God Bless America

The Pledge of Allegiance was written by a socialist. I find children who can't even read pledging their allegiance to be absolutely terrifying. It represents slavery, not liberty.

VERY INSPIRING.
