Our collection features authentic Government Specification flags, each meticulously hand-folded in North Carolina to honor military traditions and commemorative occasions. Choose from two distinguished options: Our 5' x 9.5' standard size G-Spec flag, constructed from 100% cotton and meeting strict government specifications, folds to approximately 22\"-24\" at the base—the traditional size for military burial ceremonies. Alternatively, our 3' x 5' compact option features heavyweight nylon construction with embroidered stars and sewn stripes, reinforced with a header and brass grommets for lasting durability. Every flag carries profound symbolism. The thirteen folds represent the original colonies and honor those who sacrificed for our nation's freedom. Each fold holds meaning: the first symbolizes life, the second eternal life, and the third pays tribute to veterans who gave their lives in defense of our country. This ceremonial folding tradition remains a cornerstone of military and patriotic services across the United States Armed Forces. Each pre-folded flag arrives with a certificate of authenticity, making it a meaningful tribute for military funerals, memorials, or displays of patriotic respect. All flags are proudly made in America, reflecting our commitment to quality and honor.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"_HtmlText_nect0_37 _Vertical_nect0_21\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"_HtmlText_nect0_37 _Vertical_nect0_21\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"_HtmlText_nect0_37 _Vertical_nect0_21\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"_Footer_tmqkl_36\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"Polaris-InlineStack\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"Polaris-Box\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"Polaris-InlineStack\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"Polaris-Box\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"_ActionContainer_1s24t_1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"_GenerateButton_1s24t_5\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"_Generate_19u1u_1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"_Container_19u1u_6\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"_GenerateWrapper_1nch3_1\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"The Military Gift Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42407034683454,"sku":"565858652","price":129.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0651\/6169\/1198\/files\/Pre-Folded_American_Flags_Folded_American_flag.jpg?v=1769573273","url":"https:\/\/sjb-diamond-elites.myshopify.com\/fr\/products\/folded-american-flag-pre-folded-american-flags","provider":"SJB-DIAMOND ELITES","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
