Board 11 Members Rally Around Brand New Flag
BENSONHURST — There was always something different about the U.S. flag at the front of Community Board 11’s meeting hall.
“It only has 48 stars!” said Board Chairman Bill Guarinello.
The flag board members faced when they recited the Pledge of Allegiance at their monthly meetings in the conference room at Holy Family Home, 1740 84th St., was apparently sewn before Alaska and Hawaii became states.
