The Caw: The Harbaughs' Story of a Special American Flag

Here’s an example of Head Coach John Harbaugh’s commitment to the military and first responders, and another reason why he’s the team’s nominee for the 2017 Salute to Service Award.

John and Ingrid Harbaugh were attending an inspiring fundraising event to benefit the COMMIT Foundation last May when they saw a very unique American flag up for auction.

The flag was designed and built by Baltimore native Mark Russo, a firefighter based in New York City. The stars and strips are made of damaged firehose used by the New York Fire Department during their heroic work during 9/11.
