Those of you in possession of a casket flag of a family member that you would like to donate to a honorable cause, please consider the Avenue of Flags Foundation in Lake Charles.
These flags are cataloged with the deceased name, hometown, military background and are flown in Orange Grove Cemetery on Memorial and Veterans Day. They now have over 1,000 flags and it is an impressive and moving sight to see them all displayed.

Good to know.

My wife's aunt and uncle died and they had no kids. All the nieces and their husbands gathered up to go through the house. I ended up with his WWII uniform and his casket flag because no one else wanted them and I wasn't about to let that stuff be thrown away. He followed Patton around in Europe.
