The Honor and Remember Flag's design is distinctive, yet simple. Each detail on
the flag symbolizes an important part of the overall meaning of the flags message.
The Red Field represents the blood spilled by brave men and women in America's military
throughout our history, who willingly gave their lives so that we all would remain free.
The Blue Star represents active service in military conflict. This symbol originated
with World War I, but on this flag it signifies service through all generations from
the American Revolution to present day.
The White Border surrounding the gold star recognizes the purity of sacrifice. There
is no greater price an American can pay than to give his or her life in service to
our country.
The Gold Star signifies the ultimate sacrifice of a warrior in active service who
will not return home. Gold reflects the value of the life that was given.
The Folded Flag signifies the final tribute to an individual life that a family
sacrificed and gave to the nation.
The Flame is an eternal reminder of the spirit that has departed this life yet burns
on in the memory of all who knew and loved the fallen hero.
We will always Honor their selfless sacrifice and Remember them individually by name.
Please contact your Representatives and help us arrange meetings in DC.
This will be the year for Honor and Remember federal adoption!
