Object Story
The participant's brother served as a Comanche Code Talker in WWII. The flags go beyond mere symbols; they embody family reverence and memorialize the participant's brother. This collection is not just a personal tribute; it resonates with community pride, representing two flags dedicated to the Comanche Nation and a third specifically memorializing the remarkable contributions of the Comanche Code Talkers.
