Flags taken down after local man’s deployment ends
By Lynsi Musselman
When Frank Dawson was preparing to leave Albany last October for Kabul, Afghanistan, his neighbors Shirley and Red Alexander came up with the idea of putting up a flag display to honor him and his service.
Dawson, a Senior Master Sergeant in the United States Air Force, moved with his family to Albany a few years ago and commuted to Dyess Air Force Base. This was his fifth deployment.
