Missouri Revised Statutes Title II. Sovereignty, Jurisdiction and Emblems § 8.012. Flags authorized to be displayed at all state buildings

1. At all state buildings and upon the grounds thereof, the board of public buildings shall accompany the display of the flag of the United States and the flag of this state with the display of the POW/MIA flag, which is designed to commemorate the service and sacrifice of the members of the Armed Forces of the United States who were prisoners of war or missing in action and with the display of the Honor and Remember flag as an official recognition and in honor of fallen members of the Armed Forces of the United States.

2. If a state building does not possess a POW/MIA flag, the board shall reach out to local veterans’ organizations to obtain a donated flag.

3. If the state building is unable to obtain a donated flag or if displaying the flag on the existing flagpole would in any circumstance be inconsistent with the provisions of the state of Missouri policy for display of national and state flags, the state building shall be exempt from this section.
