To desecrate the American Flag is dishonoring everyone who's has served in the military and especially those who gave their lives for our freedoms. It is a sad commentary on our time when nothing is held as sacred.

There are no provisions of the Flag Code which prohibit the sewing or repairing the flag. We do caution that if material is removed, the flag may no longer conform to the size proportions, as specified in Executive Order 10834.
