9/11...Never Forget

 

The 9/11 Memorial in the Oskaloosa, Iowa Downtown  Square.   
There is a 72 hour vigil for Mahaska County in the city square.    High school students placed the 2977 flags.  The County courthouse is in the background.  
   
Oskaloosa-based Musco Lighting provided temporary lighting for recovery operations at two of the crash sites: The World Trade Center in New York City, and the Pentagon in Arlington, Virginia. The company also provided lighting for the memorial service in Shanksville, Pennsylvania. American flags flown over the sites from the masts of the Musco Lighting trucks are still kept in Oskaloosa, and the flag that was flown over Ground Zero in New York City is being flown over the Oskaloosa Square.
