The VFW Post 5434 in Union held an American flag burning ceremony earlier today at Piqua Harley-Davidson.
This ceremony was an extension of National Flag Day on June 14th.
When an American flag becomes worn, faded, torn or soiled, it should be retired and replaced with a new flag.
The most common method is burning the torn or tattered flag in a special ceremony.
There are several ways to respectfully dispose of an American flag without showing disgrace.
