Flag to Remember

Our flags are uniquely designed to resemble an American flag and share its core values, while also having a clear distinction to avoid the perception of defacing the American flag. All flags come with a unique serial number printed on the front corner so that our hosts and name donors can track the journey of their respective flags via our website events page as they are presented and flown at various events and shared on social media.

How does the Name
Registry work?

STEP 1 – Name Donors register a name.

STEP 2 – FTR adds name of Military member or First Responder to next available flag and future flags.

STEP 3 – Name Donor is notified of flag completion and host location.

*Our flags can be found framed on a wall, hung from ceilings, or carried at events hosted by like-minded community organizations.*

Flag Design

There are several important aspects to each flag, which make what we do extremely unique and impactful.

The Union

The blue portion on the front of each flag represents the “Union”, printed on the Union are all branches of the Military. These heroic organizations are encircled by 21 stars, which symbolize the traditional 21-gun salute given to our fallen heroes. On the back of the flag is our Foundation’s logo with the First Responder colors.

Name Tape

We sew on the actual patterned uniform name tape that each fallen wore during his/her service. Name Donors are encouraged to personalize the name tape to their best form of remembrance, whether it be nicknames, dates, or a standard Rank and name.

Flag 002 in Memory of SSG Wade Langley

SSG Wade Langley Jr. was born March 9, 1983, in Columbus, Ohio. Wade enlisted in the U.S. Army after the events of 9-11 took place.

During his military career, Wade deployed three times in support of Combat Operations during the Global War on Terror. During his 12 years of service, he received many awards.

SSG Wade Langley loved his family, being outdoors shooting and riding four-wheelers. He was a die-hard Ohio State Buckeye fan! Always had you laughing, and if you didn’t know the answer to something he did!

On March 29, 2014, SSG Wade Langley passed away due to PTSD. Wade was an outstanding soldier, a loving husband, and a wonderful friend. He truly left his mark on the world. Forever missed but never forgotten.
