[QUOTE="HMCS(FMF)Ret., post: 1482546, member: 12635"] I think what you're doing is great. I do have a suggestion that might make this a little more special for you and your family. Have your FIL and Dad's flag flown over something special. My retirement flag was flown over the USS Arizona Memorial...and came with a certificate that memorializes the event. If you have an idea of a Command/place they served, or somewhere that has special significance to you/them, then call that command and ask if they'd be willing to fly a flag in their honor. I'd ask to talk to the Command Master Chief or Sergeant Major (depending on the branch of service). Depending on the place, they might ask you to provide the flag (or not). Then they'll fly the flag and give you a nice certificate to hang with the flag. It'll be something you and your family can treasure. [/QUOTE]
