Flags in Shadows of the Night - Pat Benatar 1982

 In 1982 several Nazi and American Flags appear in Pat Benatar's video for the hit single Shadows of the Night.  It seems for better of worse Nazi flags will always be sought after, especially in Hollywood movies.

This video takes place in the secondary imagined reality.  It starts off with a machine worker - Pat Benatar - dreaming and or wondering about her mundane factory worker job. 
 Notice the US flag as she gets into the cockpit of the Midnight Angel.  The Midnight Angel that amazing stroke of luck or assistance that comes the stroke of midnight. 
The US flag can be seen at the mission briefing.

Positive or negative - every thought has a power of its own.  Here a mix of wonder with dash of American Patriotism stir the imagination of someone with a 'small' role to play. 







Antarctica Trinity Flag

Antarctica is lucky because it falls into all time zones and its always today, tomorrow, and yesterday. Antarctica is in the time zone of all nations yet no nation can fathom Antarctica's time zone. London, Paris, Islamabad, Tokyo, Chicago, Moscow, Vancouver, Beijing are all within Antarctica time zone. 

Likewise Antarctica is in the Western Hemisphere and Eastern Hemisphere.  It is due south and due north of Africa, Asia, Europe, Australia, and the Americas.  Nonetheless it deserves a Trinity Flag.
