Thank you brother. I fly my flag & wear my Retired Army cap, every day. And dang proud of it. Amazing how times have changed.
When I came home from 'Nam, no one wanted anything to do with you. Now 40+ yrs. later, little kids, grown ups alike, come up
to me and say " thank you for your service ". Truthfully, it took me a while to get used to that.
God bless America!

Thanks Coop that was great. It should be played in schools across the country now. Most of there attendees have no clue what that flag is about and what it took to still be in a FREE country

The flag flies at my home as soon as the weather permits until the weather won't allow in the fall. When it's time, the old flag is retired in the country by fire. They never touch the ground. When I moved into my fiances home, I put up my flag. Guess what, a few others popped up.

It brought a tear to my eye. I still get goose bumps when I hear our National Anthem.

Hats off to patriotic Americans. You are blessed. We don't see that kind of patriotism in Canada anymore. My opinion anyway. Sad. We had our 150th birthday in 2017, big celebration across the country and the PM rhymed off all the provinces but forgot Alberta. Pretty much sums it up. We fly the Alberta flag at our home.

Got my flag pole & flag back up. Found some pieces back in the woods, I had saved from previous situations.

Old Glory Flies at my house 24/7 I have a light on top of the pole. My sister gave this to me for my 60th Birthday. I have flown the flag proudly for quite a few years now.
