Every American Veteran deserves to be shown Honor and Respect for the time given by them to this Great Nation. In an effort to show such to our deceased veterans, whose final disposition includes cremation, and to assist with a proper respectful disposal of tattered American flags that are no longer displayable, we implemented a flag retirement program. It is our desire that the Cremation Casket of every United States Veteran we assist, honorably be draped with one of these well served-retired United States Flags. Please consider donating your tattered flag to our cause.
Flags that are no longer suitable for display may be brought to our office,
2205 E. Millbrook Road, Raleigh, NC 27604
United States Code, Title 4, Chapter 1, Section 8: “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.”
