Remembering their sacrifice

“Our flag does not fly because the wind moves it. It flies with the last breath of each soldier who died protecting it.” Soldiers were remembered during the annual remembrance run in Navasota on Memorial Day, May 29. Mitch Kroll (holding the flag) and George Korpita (left of the flag) honored the sacrifice of soldiers who paid the ultimate price for freedom by running from Los Cabos to the Navasota VFW. Joining in the run but not pictured was Valerie Flores. Also pictured left to right: Navasota Police Chief Mike Mize, Navasota Fire Chief Jason Katkoski, John Flores, NPD Officer Hadley and NPD Officer Connell.
