The USS North Carolina (BB-55) My all-time favorite warship. As an elementary school student in North Carolina, I donated nickels and dimes to save this ship back in the early sixties.

Looking Back to 1941: Flag to Stay Up on Sycamore Courthouse for Duration of War

From the December 28, 2016, Looking Back (DeKalb County, Illinois)  "Looking Back."

1941, 75 Years Ago.

"The flag went up over the court house yesterday, Sheriff William Runnells, custodian of court house properties announced that the flag would be flown daily for the duration of the war.

"Ordinarily the flag is flown only on specific holidays."

The DeKalb County Court House is in Sycamore.

Raise the Flag!!  --GreGen
