A view of the Lightship “Columbia” as seen through the window at the Columbia River Maritime Museum in Astoria, Oregon, on March 7, 2025. The Museum is located on the riverbanks of the Columbia River, with multiple exhibits to include the Astoria-based Obon Society’s Japanese “Good Luck Flags,” known as Yosegaki Hinomaru. The Obon Society’s mission is to facilitate the return of captured WWII flags to Japanese descendants of those soldiers who carried them off to war as send-off gifts.
