Landon Carter, 4, of Ocoee, Fla., gets help making a stitch in the official 9/11 National flag during a stitching ceremony Thursday, July 14, 2011 at the Russell Senate Office Building in Washington, D.C. Landon's aunt, Maria Ramirez, was killed in the Sept. 11 attack in New York City. This flag was flying just south of the World Trade Center in New York City on Sept. 11, 2001 and is now making its way around the country and is being stitched back together by Americans. The flag is scheduled to be completed by this Sept. 11, in time for the 10th anniversary of the attacks. (Barbara L. Salisbury/The Washington Times)
