As an American Legion member, I need to understand the proper display and care of the American flag. Specifically, what are the guidelines for displaying the flag at half-staff, and what is the recommended method for disposing of a worn or damaged flag? Additionally, if I need to use American Legion brand marks, how can I request permission or whom should I contact?

Extract the guidelines for displaying the flag at half-staff, noting when and for how long. Navigate back to the 'Flag Education' page. Click on the 'Dispose of a flag' link. Extract the recommended method for disposing of a worn or damaged flag. Navigate back to the 'Flag Education' page (or the homepage if direct navigation from 'Dispose of a flag' is not possible). Scroll to the footer and click on the 'Request Emblem & Brand Mark Use' link. Identify and extract the contact method (e.g., email address, phone number, or form) provided for requesting permission to use American Legion brand marks. If no specific contact method is provided, state what information is available for this purpose.
