One Life, One Flag, One Mile: Project America Run II
After over 8 months of marathon days, Mike Ehredt's amazing personal tribute to over 6,550 fallen US Servicemen and women ended on Veterans Day, November 11, 2012, in Galveston, Texas, at 1:30 PM. In 2010, Mike ran from Astoria, OR, to Rockland, ME, and placed 4,424 flags, one every mile for every U.S. soldier and Marine lost in Iraq. Then, in 2012, Mike placed the last of 2,140 flags, honoring those U.S. soldiers and Marines who had died in Afghanistan.
