Afghanistan Tribute
Memorial Day May 26, 2008

In October of 2008 Team Fastrax Demonstration Team Member Todd Johnson asked the team if they would jump in an American Flag at the Thank You Foundation event at the Voice of America Park.

Todd took the Flag to Church, his Pastor along with past and present Military Personnel prayed over the Flag.

He then sent that flag to his brother and his platoon serving in Afghanistan. They used it for re-enlistment, raised it on their flag pole at their FOB and took it with them on missions where it made it through multiple attacks and IED’s.

Todd’s brother and his platoon have completed their 15 month deployment. The Flag has made it full circle and is once again back in Todd’s hands. These pictures are of some of the heroic men with whom it traveled. We would like to thank Todd’s brother and the men and women of his unit for serving our nation with such distinction and honor. It was a privilege to start this flag on its amazing journey.
