Every year on Memorial Day, the vast lattice of gravesites at the Veterans Administration's Los Angeles National Cemetery becomes a sea of red white and blue as an American flag is placed at each grave. Once a year, it is a colorful and powerful reminder that the countless flags represent only a tiny fraction of those who have served their country since the Civil War.
