A high school student made an American flag for his art assignment but when you look a little closer you see how amazing it really is…

At Indiana high school a student created an American flag for his art assignment and it has gone viral. You have to take a closer look to see just how amazing this art piece is. The meaning that this flag has is what made it go viral, especially in a time where people have been burning flags and disrespecting America and those who have died for it.

From World News Politics:

Jacob decided to make an American Flag completely out of tiny, toy soldiers. What a wonderful, patriotic image to think about an American Flag made up completely of soldiers. After all, it is soldiers who fought and died for our freedom to wave the American Flag. How inspired of Jacob to remind us of this.

The flag ended up being an 11-day family project. It required 4,466 toy army men and 20-30 cans of spray paint. The toy soldiers were affixed to a 4 X 6 piece of plywood. Jacob’s Mom, Stacy Bishop-Feazel documented the entire process on her Facebook page, and the images have been shared more than more than 250,000 times.

Below is the Facebook post that has gone viral:

What a wonderful project and what a wonderful young man to give tribute where it is due, to all the young men and women who put their life on the line to keep Americans and this great country safe! You raised a thoughtful young man Mom and Dad…
