Respect For The
American Flag

Honor Old Glory: A Community Call for Proper Flag Retirement

​

Do you have an American flag that has become old, torn, or weathered?

​

Is it no longer a fitting emblem of our nation? The United States Flag Code states, "The flag, when it is in such condition that it is no longer a fitting emblem for display, should1 be destroyed in a dignified way, preferably by burning." 

The Knights of Columbus 4th Degree Assembly #1074 is honored to provide a solution for our community, ensuring every American flag is retired with the respect and dignity it deserves
