Above, a small boat flies the Stars and Stripes as it cruises through by the sea wall Saturday, July 3, near Henry C. Chambers Waterfront Park.

Many homes in Port Royal were decorated with American flags and patrotic bunting.

How big is the Garrison Flag that usually flies on the Richard V. Woods Memorial Bridge in Beaufort? Big enough to cover all four decks of the observation tower at The Sands in Port Royal.

A lone American flag is reflected off an old mirror at Maggie Mae’s on Saturday in Port Royal.

Barbara Berry said on breezy days she has to adjust the bunting and flag on the second floor at her 8th Street home in Port Royal. Here she unwraps Old Glory from its pole Saturday.
