Labor Day passed, so you can put your flags away until . . . what, Thanksgiving?
Not so fast, patriot!
U.S. Flag Code rules list specific days for flying the flag, and Constitution Day on September 17 is one of those dates.
Also, the Flag Code urges flying the U.S. flag on the anniversary of a state’s entering the union, in that state. California’s statehood day is September 9 (next week!)

Stay ready, patriots.
