Two Remarkable Ribbons

Terry and Linda McKinch have very generously donated to Save the Flags two ribbons associated with the Governor Henry Crapo Post No. 145 of the Grand Army of the Republic. Post No. 145 was headquartered in Flint, Michigan and operated from 1883-1937. The modern descendant organization of the Post is the Governor Crapo Camp # 145 of the Sons of Union Veterans, under the command of Terrance McKinch. 

As can be seen by the attached photographs, the ribbons are in absolutely pristine condition. The ribbons will be displayed with the Governor Crapo Post No.145 flag that was likewise donated to Save the Flags in 2021 by long time Save the Flags supporter, Sherry Telling.

We would like to thank Terry and Linda for their kindness in donating these important artifacts.
