Design Note
The official POW/MIA flag is a black field with the iconic emblem and the words “You Are Not Forgotten.” It is commonly flown beneath the U.S. flag on the same halyard or alongside the U.S. flag on a separate pole at government buildings, veteran posts, schools, and homes.
Best Practices for Respectful Display
- Position: When flown on the same halyard as the U.S. flag, place the POW/MIA flag directly below the U.S. flag. In a line of multiple poles, it follows the U.S. flag in precedence.
 - Lighting: If displayed at night, illuminate the flags properly.
 - Care: Rotate between two flags for year-round freshness; rinse salt and dust; trim early fray on the fly end.
