SILVER STAR BANNER DAY 2008
Silver Star Families of America co-founder Diana Creed-Newton traveled from Missouri to Steele County with SSFA national secretary Sunshine Roth to hand out silver star flags to the 22 Purple Heart recipients.
"Steele County Minnesota is the only county in Minnesota that signed a proclamation to become a Silver Star (county),” Creed-Newton said, a fact that influenced her decision to celebrate the holiday in Owatonna."
