HOW TO FOLD THE UNITED STATES FLAG


The flag is always treated with honor and respect and is always folded when not in use.

  1. Bring the striped half up over the blue field.

2. Then fold it in half again.

3. Bring the lower striped corner to the upper edge forming a triangle.

4. Then fold the upper point in to form another triangle. Continue until the entire length of the flag is folded.

5. When you get near the end – nothing but the blue field showing – tuck the last bit into the other folds to secure it.
