A Star To Remind You We Care
From Patriot Packages.
It was with the knowledge of what the
American Flag means and represents to
us that we felt the men and women on
active duty, in harm’s way would cherish
this article of sentiment and meaning.
We select flags that have been flown,
tattered and torn by the elements and
can no longer fly. These flags are
respectfully retired at a ceremony held
by a Boy Scout troop or given to the
American Legion Post to dispose of.
The blue fields are used to take the stars
from. The remaining parts of the field
and stripes are burned . In this way
respect is paid to these Flags.
We have pledged to send these stars to
deployed members of our military only.
We include in the small bag with the star
a brief description of the way the star
was selected. We ask the recipient to
treat their star with care and to
remember what it stands for. We ask
them to carry it with them and to know
we are remembering them wherever
they are in the world. In this way the flag
still flies.

MISSION STATEMENT
Our mission is to support our
troops deployed in harm’s way,
by sending packages filled with
personal care items, snacks,
travel size games and
handwritten cards assuring our
troops that they are
appreciated and not forgotten.
The enclosure reads:
I am part of our American Flag. I have
flown over a home in the U.S. I can no
longer fly. The wear and tear of mother
nature has caused me to become
tattered and torn. Please carry me with
you in battle as a remembrance of the
America that is supporting you and
remembering the cost of Freedom.
