September 19, 2009 has been set aside to honor the commitment and sacrifices made by this nation's Prisoners of War, those who are listed Missing in Action and their families.
National POW/MIA Recognition Day is one of the six days specified by US
Public Law 101-355 for federal facilities, cemeteries, post offices and
military installations to fly the black POW/MIA flag.
The now familar black POW/MIA flag was chosen "as the symbol of our Nation's
concern and commitment to resolving as fully as possible the fates of Americans
still prisoner, missing and unaccounted for in Southeast Asia, thus ending the
uncertainty for their families and the Nation."
The other five days are Armed Forces Day, Memorial Day, Flag Day, Independence
Day and Veterans Day.
