Each time we visit the flea market, we hope that we find there something valuable or unusual. Something that can forever change our lives, and sometimes even the lives of other people. As an example, here is a story about a Texas family and an old flag that was recently in America's top news.
Unusual purchase
Walter and Lanny Brown love to visit flea markets in different parts of their state. For them, this is a kind of entertainment, akin to a treasure hunt. Often they buy old antiques, as they can be expensive to resell, but this time a completely different item attracted their attention.
This was an old American flag, scribbled with many handwritten lines. At first, the head of the family did not attach any importance to this, but then he nevertheless read about their contents. And after a moment, the man no longer doubted that he would acquire it. After paying the seller $ 5, Walter and his wife hurried home, where he explained in detail the reasons for his act.
Ode to the hero
As it turned out, this flag was a laudatory ode for Lance Fred Masieli - a young American corporal who died during the service. It was written by former boyfriend colleagues in order to perpetuate the memory of their commander.
Walter understood well the feelings of the soldiers, since his son was also a soldier. And so he decided to find the relatives of the corporal and give them this relic. Indeed, for them it will be an invaluable gift.
