The State of Maine American Legion, Sons of the American Legion and the Auxiliary will post 2,500 American flags filling Capitol Park and flowing south along Interstate 95 throughout the state of Maine to the New Hampshire border. This memorial is to remember our Veterans and their service given to our country, as well as to honor lives lost in tragedy and to heal us all by encompassing the American spirit. Join us for the weekend of November 11 for our debut field! This field is a kick off for our larger event in 2008. The proceeds from this event will benefit the Veterans of the State of Maine.
