Freedom Tower American Flag

The picture above is one of the two 25 ton steel beams anchoring the new Freedom Tower at ground zero, where the World trade center buildings resided. Written on the beam are “Freedom Tower” and a rendering of the flag of the United States flies above the words. The Grassy Knoll Institute is appalled by this picture.

I cannot believe that the flag painted on the steel beam, a beam that will forever stand in place for all to see, is displayed incorrectly. When that beam stands erect, the blue star field should be on the left side, on top. Also, the flag should be displayed as flat, not waving as pictured.

I cannot believe a Federal project would allow such a dishonor to the American flag.
