Mission 22

One star for each person a family has serving.

Service flags go back to World War I. If a blue star became gold, that person was not coming home. It is where Gold Star family comes from.

If you see one, you know what that house is carrying.

Honoring the life and legacy of Pat Tillman, who would have turned 50 today.

In 2002 he walked away from the NFL and enlisted with his brother Kevin. Both became Rangers. He was killed in Afghanistan in 2004 at 27.

Twenty-two years later his legacy has endured.
