Symbolism of the Honor and Remember flag
Official statutory text
Sec. 3. The symbolism of the Honor and Remember flag is as follows:
(1) The red field represents the blood spilled by brave men and women in America's military throughout our history, who willingly gave their lives so that we all would remain free.
(2) The white border beneath and surrounding the gold star recognizes the purity of that sacrifice. There is no greater price an American can pay than to give his or her life in service to our country.
(3) The blue star represents active service in military conflict. This symbol originated in World War I, but on this flag it signifies service through all generations from the American Revolution to present day.
(4) The gold star signifies the ultimate sacrifice as a warrior in active service who will not return home. The gold color reflects the value of the life given.
(5) The folded flag signifies the final tribute to an individual life that a family sacrificed and gave to the nation.
(6) The flame is an eternal reminder of the spirit that has departed this life yet burns on in the memory of all who knew and loved the fallen hero.
As added by P.L.97-2020, SEC.1.
