NORTH OGDEN — The reincarnation of “The Major,” a giant U.S. flag, is again flying in Coldwater Canyon in North Ogden, meant to pay tribute to the nation’s veterans as Veterans Day nears.

A group of volunteers organized by the Major Brent Taylor Foundation gathered last Saturday, Nov. 1, to haul the rolled-up, 150-by-78-foot flag up a trail to the point where it was unfurled. More activities are planned as part of what the foundation dubs Veterans Week, a series of activities to honor military service, promote patriotism and pay tribute to those who have died in military service. Veterans Day is Nov. 11.

The flag now waving in the wind on the east side of North Ogden is the reincarnation of the original flag that has flown at the mouth of the canyon each year around Veterans Day sinc
