Please, fly an American flag of any size on 9-11, Patriot Day. In the days, weeks, and months following 9-11, our country was bathed in flags as citizens mourned the incredible losses and stood shoulder to shoulder against terrorism. Sadly, those flags have all but disappreared. Honor those who lost their lives, and their families, and those who are fighting today, at home and abroad to preserve our freedom
