Welcome to Flag Steward's
Stories from Our Flag

for Tuesday, May 12, 2020​​​
... a Tribute Tuesday ...
Picture
Where is Our Flag, the U.S. Flag, lowered to half-staff today, May 12?
ONE new regional half-staff order, from Texas Governor, for All Flags at Alamo Colleges District facilities.
​
​​​​
Other Half-Staffs continue ...
... Across Alaska, Iowa, Illinois, Michigan, New York, Connecticut, and New Jersey all Flags are half-staff ...
... In Pennsylvania, all STATE Flags are half-staff ...
... And, in Atlanta, Georgia, Pickaway County, Ohio, Overland Park, Kansas, special locations in Massachusetts, Columbia, South Carolina, Washington, D.C. and San Diego, California all Flags are half-staff ...
All of these half-staffs, except in Alaska, Texas, Iowa, Ohio, and Kansas honor coronavirus victims


Upcoming H-S orders
All Flags across Kansas on Wed., May 13, for fallen officer
National Half-Staff across USA on Fri., May 15 for Peace Officers Memorial Day
[ SCROLL to bottom of page to see details, including pics, of all half-staff honorees ]
And, GO HERE to compare other half-staff services to Flag Steward's accuracy and completeness
​Today's Story from Our Flag
... is about a simple Military Appreciation Month tribute to a local, combat Veteran owned auto shop to make this upcoming Memorial Day more impactful ...
​This past Friday, Flag Steward, with a group of college (USAFA) and high school students, gifted an iHonor Flag remembering USMC Lance Corporal (LCpl) Lara to one of his USMC teammates.  [Note: I know the video quality is a bit lacking ;) ]

​GO / CLICK HERE
to learn about and honor LCpl Lara by visiting his iHonor Flag tribute page
Recite the Pledge of Allegiance
Online / Remote Learning Students across America, empowered with lessons from Our Flag, you can now recite the Pledge more meaningfully ;) 
#UnitedWeStand
#UnitedWeRecite

#UnitedWeOvercome

Please, stand, place your right hand upon your heart, and say ...

FINALLY! - TEXT (National & State) Half-Staff Alerts:

CLICK HERE to sign-up for National and State-targeted Half-Staff Flag Alert TEXT Notifications
(Many prefer this text alert service because within the Flag Steward app, we can only deliver state-targeted half-staff notifications if you are located in the state and always share your location with the app - which, rightfully, is not something most users want to do) 

This is a FREE service powered by Flag Steward's nonprofit
... America's most honorable, accurate, & complete (National, State, & Local) half-staff alert service ...
​​
Thanks for reviewing today's 'Reminders for Our Flag'
- a service from the Flag Steward program


​​Now go 'Be a stud citizen' today by ... 
... picking up and disposing of 2 pieces of trash that will help
keep America beautiful !!!
