Historical flag returns to home ship

By Deirdra Drinkard

Atlas Van Lines agent Shannon Transport, based in New Jersey, delivered a World War II flag Nov. 9 to its original ship, the last remaining Landing Craft Support (LCS) ship in the world.

For Veteran's Day, the transport company volunteered to store, pack and deliver the flag cross-country to the former U.S. Navy ship, the LCS 102, now permanently anchored in California.

In October, the flag was presented to a group of World War II LCS sailors in a ceremony aboard the Battleship New Jersey prior to its delivery to the LCS 102.
