The Flag Code
The United States Flag Code tells us all we need to know about proper flag care and display.
“The flag, when it is in such condition that it is no longer a fitting emblem for display, should be destroyed in a dignified way,
preferably by burning.”
send us your flag
When a flag is tattered or faded, it is no longer fit for display and should be retired. A local Boy Scout Troop or VFW may be willing to accept your flag, or you can mail it to us. This service is free. We do accept donations to help defray our costs. Many patriots include a $1 or $5 bill with their flag, and for that we are always grateful!.
Our mailing address is:
