Morton Grove Salutes 'Patriot Flag'

The Patriot Flag made a stop in Morton Grove Thursday as part of its journey through all 50 states.

More than 100 firefighters, veterans, cub scouts, boy scouts and other community members gathered to lower the Patriot Flag from a Morton Grove fire truck with full honors in the Civic Center's parking lot Thursday.

The flag is scheduled to fly in Shanksville, Penn., the Pentagon and Ground Zero in New York on Sept. 11, 9/11's 10th anniversary.
