As America celebrates its 250th birthday… Battleship Cove was honored to host a stopover for “The Flag Sojourn 250.” Organized locally by the Bristol County Sheriff’s Department, the ceremony included a flyover by US Coast Guard helicopter 6031.
The flag’s next stop is Springfield, MA and it will ultimately end its sojourn in Washington, DC. Many thanks to all whom made this a memorable day for Battleship Cove, Massachusetts, and the United States!
Flag Sojourn 250 is the journey of one American flag to every U.S. state, every U.S. territory, and every U.S. military cemetery overseas. This special global odyssey wraps up as the flag touches the states of the 13 original colonies — and concludes in Washington, D.C.
