AMERICAN LEGION POST #14 - BOZEMAN, MONTANA

Flag Retirement Service
June 21, 2022

Flag Retirement Service hosted by Bozeman Elks Lodge #463 in Partnership with American Legion Post #14, Vietnam Veterans of Southwest Montana, Boy Scouts Troop 649, and Cub Scouts Troop 3649 on June 21, 2022.

The U.S. Flag Code states that, “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.” Thus, when a flag is torn and tattered beyond repair, it’s time for it to be retired.
