Realized when we put the flag out for Memorial Day, that it needed to be retired. It and another we'd been holding onto will be delivered to the local VFW who will dispose of them properly at no charge. Just before July 4th, realized we hadn't ordered a new flag yet. From online order to delivery was 2, maybe three days. I am more than pleased with the order, I'm thankful I was able to fly a new flag on Independence Day %23249. Every anniversary it's important to show how much we value being free in The United States of America.
