343 flags in Sioux Falls for the fallen

Sioux Falls, SD (KELO-AM) There were 343 small flags outside the firehouse on 37th and Minnesota Avenue in Sioux Falls on the 9/11 anniversary.

Fire Division Chief Brad Goodroad wants people as they drive by to remember the 343 firefighters who died that terrible day at the Twin Towers in New York City.

Goodroad says people have a tendency to forget these events and the flag are a reminder.

Governor Daugaard asked that all flags across South Dakota fly at half staff to mark 9/11.
