Begun to represent the safe return of the Iranian hostages, an American flag was erected each day until their release?a total of 444 days?444 flags,,, with the eternal flame, this picturesque 71-acre memorial park stands as a symbol of hope and freedom, and also pays homage to the 8 who gave their lives in an attempt to rescue the hostages. Dogs must be well mannered, leashed, and cleaned up after at all times.
