Some 12,000 American flags now wave on the Virginia War Memorial hill’s grounds for the Fourth Annual Virginia War Memorial Hill of Heroes. The flags were installed June 24 by volunteers, including soldiers from Fort Lee. The flags honor the 12,000 Virginian men and women who gave their lives while serving in the U.S. Armed Forces from World War II through today. The display is free for visitors to the Virginia War Memorial, 621 South Belvidere St.
