VFW Post 660 held a flag-retirement ceremony in Savannah on Wednesday, Nov. 11, for American flags that were worn, faded or no longer suitable for display.
The public, veterans and military families were invited to attend. Post leaders said they hoped the ceremony would deepen attendees’ appreciation for the flag and the people who defended it.
The practice calls for flags that are no longer fit for display to be retired respectfully, with burning described as the preferred method.
