Nilan of the 102 Precinct, Police Officers from the 102 Precinct, Frank Gulliscio, District Manager of Community Board 6, as well as many local veterans who were grateful to be honored.<\/p>\n<p>At the top of the Clocktower Building, which has been designated as a historical landmark, is a flagpole that sits at one of the highest points in the area. Since the medical center moved into the building over 20 years ago, Jamaica Hospital has been proud to have the American flag fly high above it.<\/p>\n<p>The responsibility to raise the flag each time has been that of the center\u2019s manager, Patrick Rudden. As he has done for many years, Mr. Rudden once again climbed to the top of the MediSys Clocktower Building to raise the flag to a delighted crowd\u2019s applause.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks to everyone who made this flag raising event such a special occasion.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 50%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-4267 gallery-columns-2 gallery-size-full'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/medisyshealth.org\/newsletter\/flag-raising-ceremony-at-medisys-clocktower\/dsc_0057\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"4288\" height=\"2848\" src=\"https:\/\/medisyshealth.org\/newsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/DSC_0057.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/medisyshealth.org\/newsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/DSC_0057.jpg 4288w, https:\/\/medisyshealth.org\/newsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/DSC_0057-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/medisyshealth.org\/newsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/DSC_0057-768x510.jpg 768w, https:\/\/medisyshealth.org\/newsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/DSC_0057-1024x680.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/medisyshealth.org\/newsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/DSC_0057-452x300.jpg 452w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 4288px) 100vw, 4288px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/medisyshealth.org\/newsletter\/flag-raising-ceremony-at-medisys-clocktower\/dsc_0064\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"4288\" height=\"2848\" src=\"https:\/\/medisyshealth.org\/newsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/DSC_0064.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/medisyshealth.org\/newsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/DSC_0064.jpg 4288w, https:\/\/medisyshealth.org\/newsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/DSC_0064-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/medisyshealth.org\/newsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/DSC_0064-768x510.jpg 768w, https:\/\/medisyshealth.org\/newsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/DSC_0064-1024x680.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/medisyshealth.org\/newsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/DSC_0064-452x300.jpg 452w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 4288px) 100vw, 4288px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ShareOn Friday, March 22nd, a special flag raising ceremony was held at MediSys Clocktower in honor of the men and women who served bravely in the Vietnam War.
