Current as of January 02, 2024 | Updated by Findlaw Staff

(a) The Honor and Remember Flag is designated as the official state symbol of remembrance and as the symbol of our state’s concern and commitment to honoring and remembering the lives of all members of the United States armed forces who have lost their lives while serving, or as a result of service, and their families.

(b) The design of the Honor and Remember Flag, created by Honor and Remember Inc., shall be of the following design:

(1) The principal field of the flag shall be red to represent the blood shed by brave servicemembers who sacrificed their lives for freedom;

(2) The white banner at the bottom of the flag to represent the purity of that sacrifice;

(3) The center of the flag shall feature a gold star outlined in blue. The blue star-shaped border represents active service in military conflict and dates back to World War I. The gold star signifies the ultimate sacrifice of a warrior in active service who is not returning home and reflects the value of life given;

(4) The folded flag element below the gold star highlights this nation’s final tribute to a fallen servicemember and a family’s sacrifice; and

(5) The center of the gold star shall be filled by a flame, to symbolize the eternal spirit of the departed.
