The United States Code Title 4, Chapter 1, Section 8, Paragraph K states:
"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."


As we honor this flag, we are also honoring those who have served and died under it.

On this day, we will be properly retiring your old flags,
large or small, in a formal ceremony. Join us and bring any U.S. flag that needs to be properly retired.


We will create an American Flag Memorial consisting of 2, 977 American flags representing each person tragically killed in the terrorist attacks.
