POW/MIA flag history recalled at ceremony; motto 'You are not forgotten' highlighted
A reader recounted the origin of the POW/MIA flag, saying the National League of Families sought a symbol to represent missing service members and that designer Newton Heisley sketched the silhouette image and motto "You are not forgotten." The reader noted that Congress officially recognized the flag in 1990 under Public Law 101-355 and that the flag has flown over the White House on recognition day since 1982.

"The flag bears the motto, 'You are not forgotten,'" the program noted, and the presenter used the symbol and its history to underline the ceremony's purpose of public remembrance and continued accounting efforts.
