Archived [ARCHIVED THREAD] - Graveside Flag
Posted: 6/29/2016 11:26:59 PM EDT
At my dad's funeral a few years ago, my mom was presented with a flag in honor of his Army service.  I want to find a suitable frame, but the folded flag is 18" on the base and 12" on the sides.  The flag appears to be larger than most of the frames available. Does it need to be refolded or is there a source for a larger frame?  

Thanks!

Casket flags are larger and a slightly different shape than a standard flag in order to properly drape the casket.  They do make cases specifically for casket flags.

1st off I'm far from an expert, I'm not even a vet but my understanding is it 's a etiquette breach to ever unfold the flag once it's been folded at a funeral service.
2nd, did you ever find a frame? If not and if you are in no hurry (I'm homeless right now, soon to be corrected) I will make you one later this fall.
