| 2009-11-04 | Troy | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | Thank you so much! This was a much faster response than I expected. Like I said, I did read the US Code but didn't know if there was more to this than what I read. |
| 2009-10-17 | VEE | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | The information you provided from the state of Missouri is exactly what we need. I will also enlist the help of some present American heroes. We greatly appreciate your help. |
| 2009-10-17 | VEE | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | A wonderful response and kind and considerate answer. We will communicate with our local Army Fort to get some of our American heroes to come and instruct. The principal asked us to do it, but I would feel much better to have the military or those who have spent their time and lives defending it to do it, since I think they have much more gravitas. Thank you again! |

Expertise
I am more-or-less expert in vexillology (the study of flags). My expertise is particularly strong in North America at the level of city and county, but if I don`t know the answer I know a dozen people who do. So if there`s a flag in the newspaper or on TV that you have trouble identifying, let me know. I`ll do my best. But PLEASE DO NOT ASK ME TO APPRAISE A FLAG'S VALUE: (1) I have no expertise in that area and (2) even if I did, I cannot appraise something I can't see. Take it to a museum which has a specialist in textiles and the like.
Experience
In this field, I designed the flag of Carroll County, Illinois, in 1974 (see http://www.internetni.com/~lanarklib/index.html). You can see my personal flag at http://www.nava.org/memflags.htm
