The V4F/VGALT Austin number 69 broke the record in it's class, it had been less than 90mph, it's now the new record holder, at about 95mph. Well done!

( Blue star mother / war mother ) flags proudly displayed by a Navy mom
It's flown over the capitol building every Veterans day, and displayed in home front windows, and each blue star represents that a son or daughter is serving the country in the US military.
It was made during World War 1, and used a lot during WW2, but Korea and Vietnam weren't felt to be patriotic wars, and nothing military was quite as popular to associate with when the US went to war in foreign countries we hadn't been attacked by, so the flag became historic through disuse. Things change and public perception to the military reverted to patriotic after New York City was targetted on Sept 11th, 2001.
