The flag was donated by a veteran and was flown in combat in Afghanistan. Meghat is a sophomore business information systems major from Vicksburg, while Lehew is a junior industrial technology major from El Dorado, Arkansas. The ceremony was organized by the Department of Plant and Soil Sciences in MSU's College of Agriculture and Life Sciences.
