Factory Five Racing customer Ron Everitt and Dave Smith show off the US flag flown over the Headquarters of Combat Logistics Company, Camp Leatherneck Helmand Province, Afghanistan.  Ron’s son, Cpl. Ron Jr., serves with US Marine Corps Engineering Section and we sent him a Factory Five flag for his camp.  It was a nice surprise to receive a package from Ron Jr. with an American Flag, and a signed letter from everyone in his platoon!

We are proud to have our company logo with our guys in Afghanistan.  We are ten times more proud to have the American Flag that was flown over Combat Logistics Headquarters.  If you come to visit Factory Five, you will see on our showroom wall now eight flags that have been flown on combat missions or in the theater of war.  We are super proud of all of our American troops and look forward to the day that all of them are home safely.
