OAKWOOD — Howard Turner Anderson flies the U.S. flag at his home and is otherwise patriotic, remembering his four brothers, who, like him, served in the military. All are gone now, each one taken by diabetes, but their service in war and peacetime over a 27-year span isn’t lost on Anderson, 81, especially during such national observances as Memorial Day. “It makes me feel proud,” he said.
