MOORESVILLE – A central Indiana town now has a historical marker commemorating the adoption of the state’s flag nearly a century ago.

Shah Khokker, 21, said he likes the marker’s historic significance but thinks the Confederate flag should no longer be publicly flown. “Who won the war? The U.S. won the war,” Khokker said.

Marine Corps vet and Purple Heart recipient, MSGT Rodney Buentello, lost his life saving two teenagers from drowning in the Medina River last week.
