To honor those who serve or have served in the U.S. military on Veterans Day, Scouts BSA Troop 5202 spent Monday evening setting up more than 130 U.S. flags on the Salt Lake Veterans Administration Hospital campus, including the Fisher House.
The flags will be on display today as through the week. This is the fifth year the troop has provided the tribute.
Deseret News photojournalist Kristin Murphy was there to photgraph the work of the young Scouts.
