Did you know the Boy Scouts of America is one of the very few organizations that have an official code for flag retirement? Respect for our nation's symbols are an integral part of being a reverent, responsible Scout; thus, we have specific rules for the appropriate retirement of the United States flag. In fact, conducting a flag retirement ceremony is a very meaningful opportunity for Scouts and Scouters to reflect on the meaning of the flag as a great symbol of freedom.
