Respect To The Flag
(History)
The United States Flag was
made by Betsy Ross in June 5
1776 The stars on the flag rep
resent states coming in order as
they were admitted to the union;
starting in the upper left hand
corner and reading left to right,
gives the star of each state in
order. The stripes stand for the
first “Thirteen Colonies”. The
blue on the flag represents the
heaven, white stands for purity
of the people of the United
States Red stands for the blood
shed by the people for theii
country at war.
(Rosi ect)
The flag should be flown from
sunrise to sunset, except in the
United Sta es capitol it is flown
day and night. On Memorial day
the flag should be flown half
mast till noon then raised to the
top. If you have two flags on one
pole the United States flag should
be above the other. Old and wom
out flags should not be used eith
er for banners or for any other
secondary purpose. When a flag
is in such condition that it is no
longer a fitting emblem for dis
play, it should not lie cast aside
nor used in any way that might
be viewed as disrespectful to the
National colors, but should be
destroyed as a whole, privately,
preferably by burning or some
other means lacking in any sug
gestion of irreverence or disre
spect due the emblem represent
ing our country. In laud or sea
battles the flag is flown in any
kind of weather. '1 he flag should
be flown on; Lincoln’s Birthday
Feb. 12, Washington’s Birthday
Feb. 22, Mother’s Day second
Sunday in May, Memorial Day
May 30, Flag Day June 14, Ii -
dependence Day July 4, Labor
Day first Monday in September
and Armistice Day Nov. 11.
However when possible the flag
should be flown every day. The
flag should always be hoisted
briskly and lowered slowly.
