Success has many fathers, but failure is an orphan. On previous years, for several years, the CFI have maintained the historic Flagpole on Corregidor and readied it for the annual raising of the flag on 16 February. 2009 - Close, but no cigar. Very very disappointing. However, my thanks to our 2009 Flag Party - You guys deserve recognition for the efforts you make to be there each year to pay tribute to the men who arrived on Corregidor on 16 Feb 1945 without hotel reservations. (L to R) John Moffitt (Canada), Steve Foster (USA) Tom Aring (USA) Karl Welteke (USA) and Paul Whitman (Australia). exo
