Tuesday, The 6th Anniversary of 9/11, There were many observations, events and displays in Omaha including
dedications of 9/11 Sculpture at the city-county building and an 3000+ flags display at Memorial Park.

I did not attend the 9/11 Sculpture dedications but viewed the Memorial Park lawn flags display by the
September 11th Connection - A support group for family and friends who lost loved ones on 9/11/01.
Each flag in pictures below represents a single victim in the 9/11 attack.













Here is information about the display and 9/11 attack number breakdown



You can view all my photos of this flag display at:

Do you have any 2007 9/11 display photos to share?


------------------------------
Still nothing matches the beauty of last year's Woodman of World's Huge flag display. Enjoy them again at

Nice Pictures.  Unfortunately when I went by the park on Sunday and saw all the flags it was cloudy so I didn't get out of the car.  Are they still there?

Bard, I do not know if the flags are still there. One source said they will remove today but another source said will be there through the weekend. Thank for Remarks on my photos.
