My flag has been flying outside ever since.

Me too! I went to the hardware store on the 12th so I could hang my old flag on the side of my house. They were sold out of flagpoles, but had nice wood broomsticks. The broomstick and flag have held up well for 6 years.

Ditto.

Our elder son was serving in the USMC at Camp Pendleton, and I was checking postings on the "Sgt. Grit" forum - I always liked to keep up with what the Marines were doing - when Grit himself wrote, "If you've got a flag, go fly it NOW."

Ever since 9/11/01, Old Glory, the USMC flag (for my son), and the USN flag (my prior service) have hung proudly on my balcony.

Each and every day.
