HATTIESBURG, Miss. (WDAM) - Members of ROTC at the University of Southern Mississippi presented a Space Force flag to the VFW in Hattiesburg during a special ceremony Monday.
The National Defense Authorization Act created the Space Force branch of the military in December 2019. Now, thanks to the ROTC’s fundraising, the Space Force’s flag will fly next to the rest of the military flags in the VFW.
Post commander Gary Iverson says he is thankful to members of ROTC detachment 432 for sponsoring the Space Force flag at the VFW.
