Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States

Niles Memorial VFW Post 3579 proudly displays the American Flag every day. The American flag is the symbol of all that is sacred to those who served our country during time of war and peace time, and to those who share the common bond of service under the flag of the United States of America and, to all Americans that cherish our freedoms.

Niles Memorial VFW Post 3579 and its members emphasize respect for our flag and the Constitution of the United States that reflects what we are and hope to best a nation. Yes, freedom of speech is one of our freedoms and is part of the Constitution but, burning of our flag as a protest is disrespectful to all American people and especially the veterans who have served and died for that flag, the well-known symbol of our nation.

As veterans, we request that citizens of our great nation proudly fly the flag as the symbol of our freedoms and to honor all that have served to preserve those freedoms.
