Description

The listing, Retired flag star has ended.

Wasn't sure where to put this.

What it is, is a star that was cut out of a properly retired American flag. It's put in a little baggie with a message on the back. Our church would take these to returning soldiers as a way to thank them for all that they do.

The message:
'I am part of our American Flag. I have flown over a home in the U.S.A. I can no longer fly. The Sun and Winds have caused me to become tattered and torn. Please carry me as a reminder that you are not forgotten.'

Questions & Comments

This is really amazing. I can't believe I haven't seen one before. It's certainly one of those moments when you say "Why didn't I think of that?"

My gf's mom brought them home and told us to give them to people. But honestly, I don't know who to give them too. I have a couple left so if this goes well I'll put a few more up.

I think they're pretty neat I bet the points will climb towards the end. It seems like most people on here wait til the end to bid so their points are tied up any longer than they have to be.
