A yearlong cross-country journey of one American flag will conclude in “the city that made America” — Pittsburgh.

Titled “The Flag Sojourn 250,” the National Flag Foundation sponsored the “patriotic pilgrimage” of one American flag to every U.S. state, every U.S. territory and all 26 U.S. military cemetery overseas to celebrate the country’s 250th anniversary. The flag has been to 10 countries.

Before the flag arrives in Washington, D.C. on the Fourth of July, the final leg of its journey goes through the Steel City this week.
