Flown over the US Capitol Flag came in today

[NickD 202]

I do not impress easily, but very impressed with both the service and the quality of this flag, got the cotton 5 by 8 foot version for my wife, all stitched with the stars stitched on, and made in the USA. That is really hard to find.

The certificate that came with it testified it was flown over the US Capitol building and is a gift from her husband to Gloria Consuelo D in honor of her receiving her U.S. Citizenship.

Now what to do with it, half thinking about using an expandable ten foot pole, if security let's me bring it in to the oath ceremony, if that ever happens and waving it in the background. But only if this flag is larger than theirs.

But will have to buy a yard flag pole, a couple of bags of ready mix concrete and pull out my man killing post hole digger, that should really impress the neighbors.

Straining my brain as to how we folded the US flag in the military, but can't recall how we rolled our underwear, socks, and towels either, but in such a manner when thrown against a hard wall, it would stay intact. Wonder if I could get a refresher course in basic training?

Was a bargain at 28 bucks for such high quality, and thanks to Lucy, a wonderful gift.

You can contact your senators office and order one and you should receive it much quicker than your oath letter.

Was it LucyRich who told you about that or me? Also, although it can be flown in your yard, I would highly suggest that you buy a flag case for it to remain as a treasure in your home. You can find them at Michael's or some other craft store for about $30 on sale. I would get a second one to fly outside...but keep this one special.

If you ordered the 3 by 5 foot flag, Staashi, and posted it some time ago, it was you, then my thanks to you for posting this. I tried to find that post, was under a different topic heading as I remember, but that was thousands of posts before.

Do remember the only proper way to dispose of the flag was to burn it, but recently, I gather that your intentions can make a big difference, either respect or disrespect.

If you wish to dispose of an American Flag then you are correct, the approved method is by burning. See the link for rules governing the flag.

However, if you are concerned about people's viewing of you burning the flag you can also check with your local vetern's office. A lot of times they will take flags and ensure it is disposed of correctly.
