Disposal of American Flag Ashes

jdmullett · #1 03-29-2008, 09:40 AM

My son held a American Retirement Ceromony for his Boy Scout Eagle Project. We have the ashes left to dispose of. I have herd that there is a cermony that you can dispose of the ashes with the burial of any U.S. vetern. Is this true, and if so, were to find out how to do this cermony correctly.

hia JDM - i've never heard of the flag ashes being buried with a veteran - they could be buried with anybody who desired to have them

they can also be buried on their own

ive aso never heard of such a ceremony - the fact of the matter is - you would do as u felt it appropriate
as you may have held a ceremony whilst retiring the flag i would have thought there wouldent be a necessity for a 2nd one for the burial of the ashes
