There is no specified way to burn a flag and anything more than just burning it is a matter of choice as long as it is done with respect. Quoted from the US Flag Code “the flag, when it is in such condition that it is no longer a fitting emblem for display, should be destroyed in a dignified way, preferably by burning.”Hey guys I have a small favor to ask of you. I have a couple American flags that have gotten to the point that need to be laid to rest if you will. I know the proper way is to burn them but I do not know exactly how it is supposed to be done so if someone would mind taking a few minutes to help me with this when I get down there I would really appreciate it because I don't want to do it the wrong way.
Thank you
I'm really happy to see this. I have two that need to be laid to rest as well. When I was younger and in scouts we did this quite frequently helping businesses replace theirs and retired the old one. We did the burning method with a ceremony. You stretch the flag and cut the long way, not cutting the blue stars area then take them and lay them on top of each other and cut in half the short way. This helps the flag burn better as well as separates the stars from the stripes. . Once you cut it, the flag is no longer a "flag". As for the ceremony we talked about where the flag was flown and the background. Once the flag is in ashes, you put out the fire and bury the ashes.
This could quite possibly be the safest (albeit rather boring) rally to date!No Gimp and I won't be wheeling on the trails... some people are really going to have to step up!
My buddy Jake should have room in his blazer and I'm sure other people will just ask KennyI need a seat for the convoy on Sat. For motivation I do have a loud wireless speaker if you want that in your truck and I can play Fortunate son or Paint it black as we roll out.
