Australian Flag From 9/11 On Its Way Home

Thank you to Detective McGee who found the flag amidst all the artifacts and returned it to its people with all the honor it deserved:

FOUND beneath tens-of-thousands of tonnes of rubble and twisted steel, this soiled and crumpled flag is a solemn reminder that September 11, 2001, was more than an American tragedy.

Now, almost three years since 2749 people perished in New York, the Australian flag is going home to be preserved and mounted by the Federal Government.

Thanks to Detective McGee and the NYPD for returning our flag home.

I am touched and honoured beyond measure.
