🇺🇸 Proper Retirement of the American Flag 🇺🇸
When an American flag becomes worn, faded, or no longer suitable for display, it should be retired with dignity and respect.
Godfrey Anderson American Legion Post 43 provides a flag drop box for proper disposal. Community members are welcome to bring their unserviceable flags and place them in the box, and they will be respectfully retired in accordance with U.S. Flag Code traditions.
Please do not throw flags in the trash—let us help ensure they are honored properly for their service.
If you have a flag that needs to be retired, please use our drop box or contact the Post for assistance. 🇺🇸
