Did you know that you can request a flag from your congressman? You sure can. You can request to have a flag flown over the U. S. Capitol building on the date of your choosing. It can be of any special occasion of yours or you can request a flag flown over the U. S. Capitol building on the next available date. The choice is yours. And your congressman only charges a nominal fee for this service. (I requested a flag to be flown on my mothers birthday.)
Don't know how to do that? Its really very simple, and I am sure you will have no problem at all. Just go to one of these websites, find your congressman, go to his website and look for flags or constituent services. Download a form and mail it with a check in the amount requested for his services. Piece of cake. But if you do want help, just let me know. I will be glad to help in any way that I can.
