BOSTON — A moving Memorial Day tribute has returned to the Boston Common.
Volunteers planted more than 37,000 American flags across the Common on Wednesday.
Each flag honors a Massachusetts service member who died defending the country dating back to the Revolutionary War.
The flag garden, a tradition on the Common since 2010, will remain on display through Monday night as residents and visitors gather to pay tribute to the fallen.
This is a developing story. Check back for updates as more information becomes available.
