POW MIA Flag: Missing Soldiers of Vietnam War, WW2 Throw Blanket
In the midst of the Vietnam War, a nation yearned for answers. Families across America clung to hope, desperate for news of their loved ones missing in action. One woman, whose husband was a Navy pilot lost over the skies of Southeast Asia, felt a deep need for a symbol, a visual representation of the nation's commitment to the missing. - She envisioned a flag that would capture the essence of their plight, a flag that would serve as a constant reminder of their sacrifice. Working with a talented designer, she brought her vision to life. - The flag was born: a stark black field, a symbol of the darkness and uncertainty surrounding the missing. Against this sombre backdrop, a solitary white silhouette stood tall, representing the individual American serviceman, steadfast and resolute. - Encircling the figure, barbed wire coiled, a stark reminder of the captivity endured by prisoners of war. And looming overhead, a watchtower cast its shadow, a symbol of the constant surveillance and control exerted over those held captive. - The POW/MIA flag quickly became a powerful emblem of hope and remembrance. It flew high above government buildings, homes, and businesses, a testament to the nation's unwavering commitment to never forgetting those who had given their all. - Today, the POW/MIA flag continues to fly, a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by countless brave Americans. It serves as a beacon of hope for families who still yearn for answers, and a symbol of the nation's enduring gratitude to those who have served and sacrificed. - This work is in the public domain in the United States because it is a work prepared by an officer or employee of the United States Government as part of that person’s official duties

A beautiful small blanket that is perfect for covering your legs while curled up in front of the fire, or for a decorative touch on the sofa. We also think it looks brilliant as a Christmas table centerpiece. We are delighted with it. The colors are absolutely perfect. Vibrant yet traditional. The pattern retains its lovely details despite the texture of the fabric. Very classy product that will not disappoint as a gift.

I was pleasantly surprised when I received the cotton throw blanket. It was made with such high quality. I am just about to order another throw. The colors are so vibrate and the weaving is so neat. Affordable as well. I really love my throw.

A quality printed throw has its advantages. This is a much finer weave throw than its loopier cousins, and though lighter, it is worth the investment for custom room accessorizing. The back is much prettier than the typical brown, and the fringe on the long sides very vivid, the selvage nicely done. Before photographing, I washed the throw in cold water, delicate, with a thicker woven throw the same size. On tumble dry low, this throw was dry in half the time as the other. This is a very practical quality if you use throws for furniture covers or to wrap up in frequently. The sleekness of the fabric makes it a great layer for accenting or protecting without the feeling of sitting on too much stuff. Perfect for napping or when you feel a light chill coming on. The color printing is beautiful and on this fabric, matched the design and color of my Photoshop image. This is an advantage for blending room fabrics and colors. The fringe on the short sides prints the colors from the design image and therefore varies from the side fringe. I streaked a white fractal line through the plaid pattern to give the illusion of weaving. This printed as crisp as an illusory thread, and put some white in the short side fringe, showing another advantage of print vs loomed- for artistic purposes, line lines, detail, and color integrity can be planned and preserved. My loomed throws have color limitations and more of a needlepoint texture. Print throws reproduce an exact image. The throw felt a little stiff straight out of the package, but this went away in the first delicate wash. Of course I searched the wash water for ink or bleeding and there was none.
