I cannot tell you how much this bothered me. Thought about jumping in but then reconsidered and I just went and called the supervisor over who went to get a pole to pull it out.
I don't know about everyone else, but having served in the Armed Forces I think about those who serve every time I see Old Glory waving. To see our nation's flag lying in a heap of garbage is a a bit disconcerting and disrespectful to our nation and those that serve. If you have a flag that needs to be disposed of, please do it properly ( take it to your local VFW, American Legion or Boy Scout Troop).

Thank you for your past service and THANK YOU for doing the right thing.
HOOYAH!
