According to the U.S. 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. Today two of my kids along with several others helped pay respect to for American flags that have served as a symbol for our country symbol of our freedom and we're ready for retirement. It was hot they didn't have any shade but they didn't complain or grumble but stood reverent and silent while they cut and burned each stripe and the field of stars. What a perfect way to honor flag day.
"Today we celebrate Flag Day, the birthday of our Stars and Stripes. As we think back over the history of our nation’s flag, we remember that the story of its e...arly years was often one of hardship and trials, sometimes a fight for simple survival. As the American Republic grew and prospered and new stars were added to the flag, the ideal of freedom grew and prospered. From the rolling hills of Kentucky to the shores of California to the Sea of Tranquility on the Moon, our pioneers carried our flag before them, a symbol of the indomitable spirit of a free people. And let us never forget that in honoring our flag, we honor the American men and women who have courageously fought and died for it over the last 200 years, patriots who set an ideal above any consideration of self. Our flag flies free today because of their sacrifice. These anniversaries remind us that the great American experiment in freedom and democracy has really just begun. They remind us of the terrible hardships our forefathers willingly endured for their beliefs. And they challenge us to match that greatness of spirit in our own time. We are, after all, the land of the free and the home of the brave. -Ronald Reagan Today, Trailmen across the country will honor the flag, celebrate its history, and hold solemn ceremonies to respectfully retire worn American flags.

This is a great event that brings together other Christians with a passion for the outdoors, like us. I strongly recommend going, it’s a good time for the adults and the kids.
