When a flag is so worn it is no longer fit to serve as a symbol of our country, it should be destroyed by burning in a dignified manner. source: http://www.usa-flag-site.org/etiquette.shtml

This is highly ceremonial but you can skip to the part where the flag is placed in the fire. You might read the whole ceremony to see what we Veterans think about our flag. http://www.legion.org/?section=ameri...=flag_ceremony

There is a very simple way for you to dispose of a worn out US flag. Take it to your local VFW or Foreign Legion Post and they will do what is necessary for disposal. Simple huh? |
