This photo appeared in a 1946 issue of National Geographic.  The sailor holding the American flag is James Dennis Landrum who attended T.J. & J.M. and was a POW in the Omori Japanese POW camp. The flag was made secretly with stolen cloth. The prisoners did this at the risk of being beaten, tortured or worse.  Russell became aware of the photo when he taught Jim's daughter. The picture was taken just as the prisoners were being liberated after several years of captivity. A similar picture appears on page 310 of the best seller UNBROKEN.

The flag was stored at the U.S. Navy Museum in Washington, D.C. Jim's son was able to track it down in 2013 and arrange for it to be put on loan at the Virginia War Memorial for one year.  The flag will be formally presented on April 9, at 10:00 at the war memorial.
