    Back To School: Time for Answers



    "Every year when school starts we get a lot of e-mails and phone calls

about proper flag etiquette. So many patriotic Americans are unaware of

proper flag etiquette -- when to take flags down, how to dispose of flags,

and other general flag information," stated Kerry McCoy, owner of Flag and

Banner. "Because so many people from all over the United States getting

ready for school to start have inquired about when and how to display the

flag, we decided to provide the information in one place along with our

e-mail alerts for people wanting notification on when to fly their flags at

half mast," Kerry continued.
