Honoring Heroes

"Every American soldier killed in war is a fallen hero, and deserves both the nation's thanks and a 'Hero's Welcome'. That's what the 'Flagman' Larry Eckhardt believes, and wait until you see what he does about it. Steve Hartman reports from Mt. Sterling, Kentucky, the home of U.S. Army Pvt. FC, Dustin Gross, who was killed by a roadside bomb earlier this month in Afghanistan."


 “Turns out when you line a country road like a hero’s coming, he gets treated like one. People drop what they’re doing. Flags beget flags… one family’s loss is shouldered by an entire community.”
