Saving Private Ryan

[pahn]

So in the scene near the beginning of the movie where they show Mrs. Ryan geting the news about her sons, there is a flag in the window with some stars in it. I have seen similar flags as stickers on various cars driving around my area. Maybe they indicate a flag/general officer? Though I thought their flags are red with white stars. These are generally white with a red border and blue stars.

anyhow....

thanks.

Families of members in the military received them.
