Flag of Honor & Flag of Heroes Project

Author Some gave all – We will never forget
FlagsOnCars.com is proud to partner with Annin Flagmakers, the official flagmakers for the Flag of Honor and Flag of Heroes project, in distributing these amazing flags. These two flags have been created in the sincere desire to honor the victims of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. Each flag has been designed to honor and memorialize each person. Proceeds from the sale of these flags go to several charities, including The Voice of 9/11, The National 9/11 Museum at Ground Zero, and the Wounded Warrior Project.
This unique flag was created to honor all those who died in the 9/11 attacks. They are organized in the following way:
American Airlines Flight 11 – Starts on the first stripe, first line and includes 87 names.
American Airlines Flight 77 – Starts on the first stripe, fifth line and includes 60 names.
United Airlines Flight 175 – Starts on the first stripe, seventh line and includes 59 names.
United Airlines Flight 93 – Starts on the second stripe, third line and includes 40 names.
Pentagon – Starts on the second stripe, fifth line and includes 125 names.
World Trade Center – Starts on the third stripe, third line and includes 2,164 names.
Note: first responders are included on the Flag of Honor, but without their rank or affiliation.
This flag was created to honor all those first responders – fire fighters, police, EMS, and others – who ran in when everyone else was running out and, in doing so, gave all. This flag lists each first responder, their rank and their affiliation. You will find:
FDNY – 343 names
PAPD – 37 names
NYPD – 23 names
PANYNJ – 13 names
EMS – 10 names
OCS security – 3 names
NYSDFT – 3 names
Others – 19 names.
Both of these flags are amazing tributes to the men and women who so clearly embodied the American spirit that day. Consider flying or displaying this flag for the 10th anniversary this year!

Together we can show the world that the USA will never forget.
Share in the Patriotic Spirit! Fly a flag!
Today is a day that will, no doubt, live on in history. As the United States celebrates an end of an era of terror, join with us and our fellow citizens in flying the American Flag and remembering the victims of 9/11.
With the recent news of Osama bin Laden’s death, we find ourselves looking back over almost 10 years of remembering 9/11. It has truly been a long haul, and while this most recent news will never bring back those lost on 9/11, there is a feeling of some justice being done.
In honor of our long-serving men and women in uniform, and in remembrance of those lost on that fateful day so many years ago, Flags On Cars is offering a discount on purchases to our customers. Simply use the coupon code “OsamaDead” when you check out!
Join with us in the Patriotic Spirit and fly your flag today!

Spring for a New Flag!
Spring is a great time to get a new Outdoor Flag for your home!
With the weather warming up again, the sun shining more and people spending more time outside, flying your outdoor flag is a great way to share your patriotism.
When you break out your flag this spring, give it a quick check-over. Our high-quality embroidered flags are made to last a long time, but over time wear and tear can have it’s effect, especially if you’ve left your flag out in the weather. Make sure that your flag isn’t ripped or torn before flying it. If it is, pick up a new one and make sure your old flag gets retired in an appropriate manner. Your local VFW can help with this!
Happy spring!
