Big Timber, Mont.: We have traveled to Big Timber for the past four years to attend a RV Campout with several other RVers who own Pleasure-Way RVs. Our gathering is the weekend of the Sweet Grass County Festival, which is similar to the Los Alamos Fair and Rodeo weekend. One of our traditions is to attend the parade each year. The flags shown were a part of the parade including the US flag, the POW-MIA flag, the US flag honoring Search and Rescue and EMS (Emergency Medical Service) personnel (orange stripe), and the US flag honoring and supporting the police (blue stripe).
