re: Tattered Flags at The Box

An upside-down U.S. flag is a symbol of distress. Distressed is how Lisa Neidinger, a 23-year Army veteran, felt as she tried for weeks to get someone to replace the battered flag flying over the Coppell post office on South Denton Tap Road.

Almost every day, she drives by the Coppell post office on South Denton Tap Road. She looks up and sees the most tattered U.S. flag she ever did see.

“It’s beyond disrespectful,” she told The Watchdog. “It’s a complete disgrace.”

The flag is so battered that it looks like someone hung a colorful beach towel atop the flag pole.

Coppell is not the same city as Denton Texas and not in Denton County. Coppell is in Dallas County. Coppell is 25 miles from Denton.
