But for over six decades these flags set in dark storage. They did not see light at all until we could figure out how to conserve them, how to repair them, and how to put them in these climate controlled cases. So, they have been conserved. They have been restored as much as possible. What is left will be there for many generations to come. But to be beside a flag, to be in the presence of that object is to be in the presence of the past, because this is that tangible, real connection people can have to the past.
