Thursday before Memorial Day is "Flags In" Day

 
May 21, 2026
 

This weekend we pause to honor the men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice while serving in our nation’s armed forces.

At Arlington National Cemetery and across the country, row after row of white headstones are marked with small American flags — a solemn sea of red, white, and blue placed by the soldiers of The Old Guard during “Flags In.” Each headstone is visited, name read and flag placed..

Memorial Day is not just the unofficial start of summer. It is a day of remembrance for those who gave their lives so we could enjoy the freedoms we hold dear.
Let us remember them with gratitude, respect, and a commitment to never forget. 🇺🇸
