American Flag

As I was perusing an Indiana senator's website, I encountered something I didn't expect. It was a page dedicated to flag requests. The Capitol Flag Program began in 1937 and it allows Americans to request a flag that has been flown over the Capitol. It also comes with a Certificate of Authenticity by the Architect of the Capitol. So if you would like to request a flag to be flown over the Capitol on a special day, go to your Congress representatives' site to find out the process to do just that!
