Watch the corners of the “fly end” for the first signs of wear.  Trim off the worn hem and re-hem the end.  It’s perfectly proper, and when done promptly and can extend the life of your flag. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--&gt; &lt;!--[endif]--&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b&gt;High Winds (80 on the highway is breaking the speed limit)&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--&gt; &lt;!--[endif]--&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;When your flag is flown in high winds something has to give. Common sense should tell you your flag is working to hard. Take your flag inside.  Also, wind velocity is higher at the top of your &lt;a href="http://www.flag-works.com/flagpoles.htm"&gt;flagpole&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--&gt; &lt;!--[endif]--&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;h1&gt;Rain Rain Go Away&lt;/h1&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--&gt; &lt;!--[endif]--&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;The added weight of moisture causes the flag to snap harder and wear out sooner. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;High winds and rain can beat some of the dye out of flag fabrics and cause color migration. This can happen to even the best of flags.  (If your flag suffers color damage due to storm exposure, prompt washing in a mild detergent may remove the discoloration.)&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--&gt; &lt;!--[endif]--&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;h1&gt;Time to Take a Bath&lt;/h1&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--&gt; &lt;!--[endif]--&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Keep your flags clean. Dirt is sharp it cuts fabrics, dulls colors and wears out your flag sooner. Most outdoor flags can be washed.  Give your flag a bath in mild detergent and rinse thoroughly.  &lt;a href="http://www.flag-works.com/indoor_flags.htm"&gt;Indoor flags and parade flags&lt;/a&gt; should be dry cleaned.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--&gt; &lt;!--[endif]--&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;h1&gt;Don’t Wet the Bed&lt;/h1&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--&gt; &lt;!--[endif]--&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Never store your flag wet.  Dry the flag by hanging it neatly and evenly to dry.  Wet fold creases are hard to get out and dampness ruins fabrics and causes mildew.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--&gt; &lt;!--[endif]--&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;h1&gt;Of Rust and Care&lt;/h1&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--&gt; &lt;!--[endif]--&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Flagpole care and flag care go hand and hand.  Rusty, pock marked poles chafe and tear &lt;a href="http://www.flag-works.com/american_flags.htm"&gt;flag fabrics&lt;/a&gt; and stitching. Rust scale can cause permanent stains.  Please keep your flagpole in good condition. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--&gt; &lt;!--[endif]--&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Thanks to the now defunct Dettra Flag company for the above guidance.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--&gt; &lt;!--[endif]--&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Patrick Page&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Flag-Works over America, LLC&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--&gt; &lt;!--[endif]--&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--&gt; &lt;!--[endif]--&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7725670449181693122-1123073444205349402?l=flagman-america.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://flagman-america.blogspot.com/feeds/1123073444205349402/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7725670449181693122&amp;postID=1123073444205349402' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7725670449181693122/posts/default/1123073444205349402'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7725670449181693122/posts/default/1123073444205349402'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://flagman-america.blogspot.com/2012/01/how-to-prevent-premature-flag-failure.html' title='How to Prevent Premature Flag Failure'/><author><name>flagman</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10296798423752413237</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7725670449181693122.post-4571113340350107117</id><published>2012-01-03T18:32:00.003-05:00</published><updated>2012-01-03T18:37:39.859-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='blog'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='American Flag'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='flag blogs'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>I recently set up another blog on WordPress.

Answer:  The size of your pole will determine the size of your flag. House Mounted Poles: Your flag should be 1 foot shorter in length than your pole.  A 6 foot pole is ideal for a 3x5' flag, whereas a 5 foot pole is ideal for a 2-1/2x4' flag or smaller. In-Ground Flagpoles: The length of your flag should be 1/4 to 1/3 the height of your pole.   For example, a 20 foot pole can fly a 3x5' or a 4x6' flag, depending of how large of a statement you would like to make.

Answer:  Depends   Nylon is the most popular flag material because it flys better on a slightly breezy day, giving the fullest visual effect.  Our nylon flags are made of 100% 200-denier SolarMax nylon, making it one of the longest lasting nylon flags available.  If you are flying a nylon flag and it rips and fades at the same rate than you are getting good wear from your flag and it's just time to replace it.  However, if your flag is ripping before it fades and your flag still has a lot of color you might want to consider upgrading to a 2-Ply woven Polyester flag. Polyester flags will fade at the same rate as a nylon flag but will hold up better as far as ripping in extreme weather conditions or high wind areas.  Because the polyester flags are heavier than nylon flags, they may not fly as well in light breezes.  This is why we recommend polyester flags to people in extreme wind or weather conditions only.   Our American flags are made in the USA and feature embroidered stars and sewn stripes. Got a Question you would like us to answer?

It's the Anglicised version of the Irish Phrases  "Éirinn go Brách" or "Éireann go Brach."    In 1847 Los San Patricios (Saint Patrick's Battalion) flew as their standard a green flag with a harp on it (the harp is Irelands Coat of Arms), with the motto "Erin Go Bragh" underneath.

I asked without fear, &gt;&lt;br /&gt;'Come in this moment, it's freezing out here! &gt;&lt;br /&gt;Put down your pack, brush the snow from your sleeve, &gt;&lt;br /&gt;You should be at home on a cold Christmas Eve!' &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For barely a moment I saw his eyes shift, &gt;&lt;br /&gt;Away from the cold and the snow blown in drifts. &gt; &gt; &gt;&lt;br /&gt;To the window that danced with a warm fire's light &gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then he sighed and he said 'Its really all right, &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm out here by choice. I'm here every night.' &gt;&lt;br /&gt;'It's my duty to stand at the front of the line, &gt;&lt;br /&gt;That separates you from the darkest of times. &gt; &gt; &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No one had to ask or beg or implore me, &gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm proud to stand here like my fathers before me. &gt;&lt;br /&gt;My Gramps died at 'Pearl on a day in December,' &gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then he sighed, 'That's a Christmas 'Gram always remembers.' &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My dad stood his watch in the jungles of ' Nam ', &gt;&lt;br /&gt;And now it is my turn and so, here I am. &gt; &gt; &gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've not seen my own son in more than a while, &gt;&lt;br /&gt;But my wife sends me pictures, he's sure got her smile. &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then he bent and he carefully pulled from his bag, &gt;&lt;br /&gt;The red, white, and blue... an American flag. &gt;&lt;br /&gt;I can live through the cold and the being alone, &gt;&lt;br /&gt;Away from my family, my house and my home. &gt; &gt; &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I can stand at my post through the rain and the sleet, &gt;&lt;br /&gt;I can sleep in a foxhole with little to eat. &gt;&lt;br /&gt;I can carry the weight of killing another, &gt;&lt;br /&gt;Or lay down my life with my sister and brother.. &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Who stand at the front against any and all, &gt;&lt;br /&gt;To ensure for all time that this flag will not fall.' &gt; &gt; &gt;&lt;br /&gt;' So go back inside,' he said, 'harbor no fright, &gt;&lt;br /&gt;Your family is waiting and I'll be all right.' &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;'But isn't there something I can do, at the least, &gt;&lt;br /&gt;'Give you money,' I asked, 'or prepare you a feast? &gt;&lt;br /&gt;It seems all too little for all that you've done, &gt;&lt;br /&gt;For being away from your wife and your son.' &gt; &gt; &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then his eye welled a tear that held no regret, &gt;&lt;br /&gt;'Just tell us you love us, and never forget. &gt;&lt;br /&gt;To fight for our rights back at home while we're gone, &gt;&lt;br /&gt;To stand your own watch, no matter how long. &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For when we come home, either standing or dead, &gt;&lt;br /&gt;To know you remember we fought and we bled. &gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is payment enough, and with that we will trust, &gt;&lt;br /&gt;That we mattered to you as you mattered to us.' &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unknown&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7725670449181693122-4371101350025506312?l=flagman-america.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://flagman-america.blogspot.com/feeds/4371101350025506312/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7725670449181693122&amp;postID=4371101350025506312' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7725670449181693122/posts/default/4371101350025506312'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7725670449181693122/posts/default/4371101350025506312'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://flagman-america.blogspot.com/2008/12/new-christmas-poem.html' title='A new Christmas Poem'/><author><name>flagman</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10296798423752413237</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7725670449181693122.post-7044849130174043231</id><published>2008-10-14T09:26:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2008-10-14T09:31:16.007-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Love of country'/><title type='text'>Love your Country</title><content type='html'>When an American says that he loves his country, he means not only that he loves the New England hills, the prairies glistening in the sun, the wide and rising plains, the great mountains, and the sea.

Not yet dry behind&lt;br /&gt;the ears, not old enough to buy a beer, but old&lt;br /&gt;enough to die for his country. He never really&lt;br /&gt;cared much for work and he would rather wax&lt;br /&gt;his own car than wash his father's, but he has&lt;br /&gt;never collected unemployment either.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He's a recent High School gradua te; he was probably&lt;br /&gt;an average student , pursued some form of sport&lt;br /&gt;activities, drives a ten year old jalopy, and has a&lt;br /&gt;steady girlfriend that either broke up with him when&lt;br /&gt;he left, or swears to be waiting when he returns from&lt;br /&gt;half a world away. He listens to rock and roll or hip-hop&lt;br /&gt;or rap or jazz or swing a nd a 155mm howitzer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He is 10 or 15 pounds lighter now than when he&lt;br /&gt;was at home because he is working or fighting&lt;br /&gt;from before dawn to well after dusk. He has&lt;br /&gt;trouble spelling, thus letter writing is a pain for him,&lt;br /&gt;but he can field strip a rifle in 30 seconds and&lt;br /&gt;reassemble it in less time in the dark.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He can recite&lt;br /&gt;to you the nomenclature of a machine gun or grenade&lt;br /&gt;launcher and use either one effectively if he must.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He digs foxholes and latrines and can&lt;br /&gt;apply first aid like a professional.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He can march until he is told to stop,&lt;br /&gt;or stop until he is told to march.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He obeys orders instantly and without hesitation,&lt;br /&gt;but he is not without spirit or individual dignity.&lt;br /&gt;He is self-sufficient.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He has two sets of fatigues: he washes one and wears&lt;br /&gt;the other. He keeps his canteens full and his feet dry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He sometimes forgets to brush his teeth, but never&lt;br /&gt;to clean his rifle. He can cook his own meals, mend&lt;br /&gt;his own clothes, and fix his own hurts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you're thirsty, he'll share his water with you; if you&lt;br /&gt;are hungry, his food. He'll even split his ammunition&lt;br /&gt;with you in the midst of battle when you run low.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He has learned to use his hands like weapons&lt;br /&gt;and weapons like they were his hands.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He can save your life - or take it, because that is his job.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He will often do twice the work of a civilian, draw half the pay, and still find ironic humor in it all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He has seen more suffering and death than he should have in h is short lifetime.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He has wept in public and in private, for friends&lt;br /&gt;who have fallen in combat and is unashamed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He feels every note of the National Anthem vibrate through his body while at rigid attention, while&lt;br /&gt;tempering the burning desire to 'square-away ' those&lt;br /&gt;around him who haven't bothered to stand,&lt;br /&gt;remove their hat, or even stop talking.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In an odd twist, day in and day out, far from&lt;br /&gt;home, he defends their right t o be disrespectful.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just as did his Father, Grandfather, and Great-&lt;br /&gt;grandfather, he is paying the price for our&lt;br /&gt;freedom.
