    Part of the World War II exhibit at the Columbia River Maritime Museum in Astoria, Oregon, which helps tell the story of Japanese “Good Luck Flags,” known as Yosegaki Hinomaru, on March 7, 2025. 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.
