“In the middle of the cavernous cargo hold was a simple, aluminum coffin with a small American flag draped over it. We were bringing another American soldier, just killed, home to his family and final resting place.

Senator John Kerry
“Is there nothing we won't outsource, China is the world's largest producer of American flags how many American jobs where lost in that deal”

“If I say I am concerned, it seems like there's a red flag. There are no red flags. I just hope it's OK and I hope it's getting better and that he's feeling good. I don't see that this is a major issue.”

Alan Henderson
“I am very proud of the things we are able to do. We put out small flags on each property on all the national holidays. We have an annual picnic. Last year we installed a large flagpole and flag on Lowell Avenue where our neighborhood sign stands.”
Joyce Frost
“We [Americans] are the lavishest and showiest and most luxury-loving people on the earth; and at our masthead we fly one true and honest symbol, the gaudiest flag the world has ever seen.”
Mark Twain
