Leave it to the Legion to dispose of old flags
Residents may dispose of worn or damaged American flags in an honorable fashion at the Delphi American Legion Post #75 drop box in front of the Legion on S. Washington St. "Not many people know how to dispose of damaged flags," commander Rex Wilson explained. "Pete Kuns came up with this idea to help with that. We wanted to provide the box as a service to the community and to honor the flag." Kuns said flags deserve honorary disposal because of their meaning. "By honoring the flag, we honor those whom it represents," he explained. Flags placed in the drop box will be destroyed by legionnaires during a Flag Day ceremony June 14.
