Banjer has it right on. I keep a flag from my Dad's coffin, he flew as a tail gunner in B-17s in WW-II, in a Shadow Box with his medals and pictures under it. Lots of places have them but a good one is a bit spendy.

After reading all of the posts I may have to rethink how I have it displayed. My only concern is that flown outside will really wear it out faster - and for me it is a family eirloom. When I die I hope my kids will put my stuff in a case with the flag they put over me.

If you have a local Marine detachment they can fold the flag properly for you to display in a case. Thanks for thinking of veterans on this day. Steve
