Fly the Flag Campaign

On Sunday, September 11th, 2011, I would be proud to see the American flag displayed outside every home, apartment, office and store in the United States.  Let's make it our duty to display an American flag on this tenth anniversary of one of our country's worst tragedies.  We do this to honor those who lost their lives on 9/11, their families, friends and loved ones who continue to endure the pain, and those who today are fighting at home and abroad to preserve our cherished freedoms.

In the days, weeks and months following 9/11, our country was bathed in American flags as citizens mourned the incredible losses and stood should-to-shoulder against terrorism.  Our patriotism pulled us through some tough times and it shouldn't take another attack to galvanize us in solidarity.  Our American flag is the fabric of our country and together we can prevail over terrorism of al kinds.

I'm not sure where this campaign originated, but share it with your family and friends, and fly the American flag of any size on September 11th.  I will.
