What is the protocol for lowering the U.S. Flag?
A. For information about U.S. flag etiquette please visit www.usa-flag-site.org. Information on the use of flags in funeral activities for both line-of-duty and non-line-of-duty deaths can be found in the Chaplain’s Manual created for the Foundation by the Federation of Fire Chaplains. Please remember to recognize the brave men and women who died protecting their communities by lowering your flag during the National Fallen Firefighters Memorial Service.
