SIERRA VISTA — Wednesday will be a special day for Lindsey Botkin.
In a short ceremony outside the state Capitol in Phoenix, Republican Gov. Jan Brewer will raise the POW/MIA flag. The action will signify that the black and white banner with a silhouette of a captured man is to be forever flown on the Capitol complex’s main flagpole.
Not only will Botkin be at the special flag-raising ceremony in Phoenix, but so will a number of veterans, including a contingent from San Diego.
