ITEM #22 

Own a Piece of History!  Fort Knox Floor Flag

The flag is made of hardwood flooring reclaimed from the barracks at Ft. Knox Kentucky.  This wood was salvaged in 1998 by Wes McDonald as part of a recycling program through the Federal Government. It has never been sealed with chemicals, but was waxed which leads to its character.  Soldiers from Armored divisions and Marines who fought in WWII walked on this floor before heading off to war.

The photo above is an example.  Each flag is unique and will contain its own identifying number.  Approximate size 14 x 20. 

Value:  PRICELESS
