Colonel Van Barfoot is a 90 year-old World War II veteran who some believe to be the most decorated soldier in the nation.  Unfortunately, some of his neighbors have a problem with a flag pole in his front yard.  The home owner&#8217;s association permits flags, but seems to be rather vague in how they are allowed to be displayed.  Some neighbors have small flags displayed on their porch, but Colonel Van Barfoot feels this is an inappropriate way to display the U.S. flag.  It&#8217;s hard to believe someone could be so opposed to a decorated World War II veteran&#8217;s flag.</p>
