On September 9, 2011, AAFMAA sponsored
the unveiling of the "Superflag", the world's largest
American Flag at Fort Carson in Colorado Springs, CO.
With the help of the Fort Carson MWR,
650 troops and over 400 school children, the 3,000 pound
flag was unfurled at Iron Horse Park. Each star on the
flag is 17 feet wide and the entire flag measures 255
feet by 505 feet -- that's almost one football field
long by two football fields wide!
This video captures that event as well
as a history of how the flag represents the American
values we hold dear.
