A flag flap has erupted at Denali National Park in Alaska following a report that the superintendent has banned construction workers from flying the stars and stripes, a claim the National Park Service denies.
National Park Service denies report, says it doesn't even have the power to regulate contractors in that way
“At no time did an NPS official seek to ban the American flag from the project site or associated vehicles,” he said. “The American flag can be seen at various locations within Denali National Park—at park facilities and campsites, on public and private vehicles, and at employee residences — and we welcome its display this Memorial Day weekend and every day,” Mr. Christian said.
Awesome interview with an Alaska pioneer from Fort Yukon — before statehood — ready to convoy to the Denali National Park entrance to let the Park Service know the American flag is welcome everywhere in the USA. It is an outrage that on the lead-up to Memorial Day, a construction worker was prohibited from flying an American flag in a national park in Alaska. I cannot conceive of a federal law or regulation mandating this.I’ve written the <a href=”https://twitter.
