Old Glory flys 365 24/7 and gets replaced twice/year. I take the worn out ones to the Legion for proper disposal.

“Old Glory flys 365 24/7.”

Flag etiquette: Old Glory should be brought in at night unless a light is shining on it, and brought in during inclement weather.

We are near a park here, and the wind gets vicious sometimes, I’ve had to replace my flags out front about 10-12 times since we moved here in 2004. I send them to a teacher at my daughter’s elementary school who works with the Boy Scouts. They do a ceremony and destroy the damaged flags properly.
