Travel2003 Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Proper way to dispose of a flag.Cut the flag along the colors. This so all the colors are separated from each other. Then you can either shred or burn the various colored rags. Out of respect they should be destroyed and not used as rags for other purposes. Not kidding. This is the proper way to do ot. Really not that many countries in the world where they make underwear, etc out of their flag, and at the same time react when other people burn their flag. By the way, With so many x-military people on the Forum, Im surprised none came up with an answer. Let me rephrase that, with so many alleged x-military people.

Scott Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Don't just throw it in the bin. I had one of those yellow flags that was given out in my moo bahn some years back. Had no idea why, but I wrapped it up and put it out with the trash (since it was attached to a stick, it wasn't in the trash. It was promptly taken out and put back by my door. This happened twice before I figured out, not the right thing to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Proper way to dispose of the US flag is by burning. A proper triangular fold and the placed on a large fire. You can give them to American Legion or VFW and they will do it for you as well as the Boy Scouts. To throw in the trash is ok if you have removed the blue field and burn it.
