The 56 Stars Flag – surviving prisoners liberated from Mauthausen concentration camp in Austria, used sheets and jackets to make a United States flag as a gift to the American Soldiers responsible for their freedom. The prisoners could not remember how many stars the United States flag had so they made their flag with 56 stars. The flag is displayed today at the Museum of Tolerance, a Simon Wiesenthal Center and global human rights organization, headquartered in Los Angeles, California.
