also 6 of 5x3 printed flags all made in taiwan that are faded now :( but i dont know if i have the heart to burn them even tho this is the proper way to dispose of old flags. theyll probably be folded up and put away somewhere. i know i wont be able to burn them.





ok well i shall now eat my own words! i did burn those flags. after alot of thinking about it i decided to best way to respect those flags was to burn them.
i took them putside and hung another american flag up with string to anearby tree then i set some papers on fire sang a couple of patriotic songs then put the flags in the flames one at a time stripes 1st. it felt very strange to do it!!

That's exactly how the Legion does things during their flag retirement ceremonies. And then after the ashes cool, they bury them.

We don't have any (Mom thinks it's tacky to hang them on a flagpole in front of the house and I kind of agree) but the lawyers down the courtyard have one. They took it down, like, last week though.
