As Americans, we've always respected our flag as a symbol of our freedom and the sacrifices of those who fought for it. Unfortunately, we're seeing more and more instances of disrespect towards our flag. It's time to take a step back and reflect on what our country stands for. We need to come together and work towards reclaiming our country before we lose the freedom that so many have fought for. Let's honor our flag and all that it represents.

No Flag Higher: When displayed with other flags, the American flag should always be at the highest point or to the flag's own right (the observer’s left). 4. Proper Disposal: When a flag is worn and no longer fit for display, it should be retired in a respectful manner, typically by burning in a dignified ceremony. Did You Know? 1. Folding the Flag: There is a specific way to fold the American flag into a triangular shape, which symbolizes the hats worn by colonial soldiers during the American Revolution. 2.
