A little flag 101 respect refresher. Always great to see our Veterans continuing to respect our national anthem, flag, and country. So many people do not show the respect, in some cases probably because our schools discontinued the pledge and parents didn’t pick up the slack.

MILITARY SALUTE FOR THE FLAG DURING THE NATIONAL ANTHEM
BY MEMBERS OF THE ARMED FORCES NOT IN UNIFORM AND BY
VETERANS.
Traditionally, members of the nation’s veteran’s service organizations have rendered the hand-salute during the national anthem and at events involving the national flag only while wearing their organization’s official head-gear.
The National Defense Authorization Act of 2008 contained an amendment to allow un-uniformed service members, military retirees, and veterans to render a hand salute during the hoisting, lowering, or passing of the U.S. flag.
