2013
Though an event centered in Oklahoma City, the global reach of the bombing cannot be overstated. From worldwide news reports of the bombing to present-day museum visitors, many people from various places have come to the Memorial to learn the story and remember. This German flag highlights these facts. Written on the yellow stripe of the flag is a message in German that reads, “With Love and Honor, I will remember it.” The note was left by someone from Backnang, Germany. Items and notes like these remind us of the interconnectedness of all people.
