Description

Avenue of 444 Flags In 1981, as the Iranian Hostage Crisis reached its 100th day, the owner of Hillcrest Memorial Park in Hermitage, Pennsylvania, Thomas Flynn, planned a tribute to the 52 Americans being held. A new flagpole waving the United States flag would be raised each day until the hostages were freed. The American hostages were held in Iran from November 4, 1979 to January 20, 1981. So at the end, there were 444 flags, one for each day of captivity.
