Flag Day —
June 14 “/ pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. ”
There are already lots of flags flying throughout the county - many from Memorial Day. While thoughts on patriotism run the garnet and the red, white and blue often takes a beating these days, our flag should always be treated with respect and care as it symbolizes a great and living nation. As flags of all sizes are posted on fences and hung from our homes, let’s remember to always display the flag with the blue union field up - never upside down unless in distress. Hold the flag carefully - never let it touch anything beneath it. Carry the flag aloft and free - not flat or horizontally.
Keep it clean and safe. Dispose of a worn flag property - by burning. Don’t use the flag for advertising purposes or use it as part of a costume. Flag patches, on the hand, can often be seen on the uniforms of police officers, fire fighters or military personnel. There are many local sports organizations that promote patriotism for their players. The National Capitol Soccer league encourages all their players to affix a flag patch on their uniforms regardless of their respective team affiliations. We may not always agree with our country’s politics but showing respect for the symbol of our country should never be questioned.
