Order a U.S.
Flag,
Optionally Flown Over the U.S. Capitol
This page will provide you with information on how to order a
United States Flag through my Washington office.
There is no limit on the number of flags you may order. Flags
can be purchased in multiple sizes. All flags are sold at cost
and take approximately 4-6 weeks for delivery, depending on the
availability of inventory.
If you choose to, you may have the flag flown over the Capitol
Building. All flags flown over the Capitol are accompanied by a
certificate of authenticity. Flags may be flown for a particular
person, event, or organization, and may be flown on a specific
date. If multiple flags are requested to be flown, they will all
be flown on the same date and shipped at the same time. If you
need flags flown on different dates, you must submit separate
order requests for each separate date to fly the flags.
Here's an example of what a certificate accompanying the flag
might say:
This flag was flown for John Smith in recognition of his
retirement from teaching after 40 years of dedicated service.
As we do not accept credit card payments, we need all flag
requests to be sent by mail with a check. Please use the order
form to specify the flags and certificate information you want,
then print the resulting order request for mailing.
If you would like to learn more about our flag, the proper way
to fly it, instructions for folding the flag, the words for the
pledge of allegiance, or how to dispose of unserviceable flags,
the American Legion web site
has an informative section on the U.S. flag.
To proceed to the order form, please first fill in who is
purchasing the flag, and where the order will be sent.
