Why: As a demonstration of American resolve and in support of the victims'
families, employees of American Airlines, United Airlines, and Military
Service Members, and Federal employees will carry a United States flag
across the country. This flag was flown over Iraq in the cockpit of a U.S.
F-16 in support of Operation Southern Watch on October 2, 2001. Proceeds
from this event will benefit selected charities in support of the victims
of
the tragedy on September 11, 2001.
When: The flag will leave Boston on October 11, 2001 with a goal to arrive
in Los Angeles on Veteran's Day, November 11, 2001. These cities represent
the origination and destination of American Flight 11 and United Flight
175.
How: The flag will be carried around the clock to achieve this goal. The
routing is being developed but will proceed from Boston, through: New York,
Washington, Atlanta, Dallas, Oklahoma City, Albuquerque, Phoenix, and Los
Angeles. U.S. military personnel and Federal employees will be involved as
the flag moves through the D.C. area. Additional participation
from employees of other airlines and military and Federal
employees, as well as the general public, is anticipated as
the event crosses the country and, in particular, in the
vicinity of military and Federal installations.
