The National Day of the Cowboy flag also flies in England with the British Cowboys at Western Trails, and it flew in Iraq and Afghanistan with our Desert Cowboys while they were in service to America. It has been carried around the world by a group of Western performers, to Ireland by spokesperson, Kelsee Brady Bradshaw, and thanks to spokesperson Hotshot Johnny, the National Day of the Cowboy flag flew in Lebanon on July 24, 2010 at the largest rodeo ever produced in the Middle-East. Tom and Jan Bishop will be flying their NDOC flag in Canada, as part of their Canadian Wild West Show.
In 2008 [note, I had the date wrong yesterday], this special flag flew to the International Space station, carried by NASA Commander, Mark Kelly, aboard the Discovery space shuttle. This event was even covered in the Washington Post. Former U.S. Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords [yes, Gabby!] returned the space flag to us after she carried it on horseback in the Rex Allen Days Parade that year.
