Honor and Remember Flag

Letter to the Editor

Response to War Devils Remember, Honor Three Friends, Fellow Soldiers

I would like to introduce you to www.honorandremember.org

Mission: To create, establish and promote a nationally recognized flag that would fly continuously as a visible reminder to all Americans of the lives lost in defense of our national freedoms. All Military lives lost not only in action but also in service, from our nation's inception.

Rationale: In our over 200 year history there has never been an official national symbol that recognizes in gratitude and respect the ultimate sacrifice made by members of the United States military in service to our nation. The Honor and Remember Flag was created for that purpose.

Goals:

1. To promote the concept of the Honor and Remember Flag and request that visitors to the website sign a petition and pass the word about the importance of this new symbol.

2. To build a consensus among the branches of the United States military, service and civic groups, businesses and individuals in order to collectively solicit the Department of Defense and the United States Congress to propose and accept the Honor and Remember Flag as the official flag for honoring fallen servicemen and servicewomen.

3. To promote broad national awareness of and groundswell interest in the flag, so that military and government facilities as well as households throughout the country would begin flying the Honor and Remember Flag in recognition of our nation's fallen warriors.

4. To place one personalized Honor and Remember Flag in the hands of living parents who have lost a child in military service to America.
