A National Rememberance Flag

Please visit HonorandRemember.org and sign the petition for a National Rememberance Flag in honor to acknowledge the American service men and women who never made it home.


A National
Remembrance Flag
In the more than 200 years of our nation’s history there has never been
an officially recognized symbol that reminds us daily of the sacrifices
made by members of our military who lost their lives in service to our
country.Until now.TheHonor andRemember organization has launched
a national campaign to create an emblem with which every patriotic
American can acknowledge the ultimate price of freedom.
The Honor and Remember Flag recognizes all individuals from all wars or conflicts involving the United States who died while
serving our nation. The flag serves as a symbol of national gratitude for the hundreds of thousands of American men and
women who bravely made the ultimate sacrifice to preserve the freedoms we enjoy. The flag also helps to give closure to the
thousands of families that deserve recognition for the sacrifice of a lost loved one. It will be a nationally recognized reminder to
allAmericans of the value of each individual life given for our freedom.
Our goal is for the flag to be congressionally andmilitarily sanctioned as a permanent symbol to fly continuously in eternal honor
and remembrance of fallenmilitary servicemen and women.Ourmission is to encourage allAmericans to fly this new emblem
wherever our national flag is flown.An important objective is to place an Honor and Remember Flag in the hands of every living
parent who has lost a child in military service toAmerica.

gave their lives so that our nation would remain free.
