Displaying Memorial Flag Cases
Memorial
flag cases, in which the burial flag from a military
burial has been folded and placed, have provided the bereaved
of military personnel with a focus point for remembrance
of loved ones for almost a century now. It was in September
1912 that the American flag was first used as a burial flag,
memorial
flag cases being introduced a short time afterwards
to store and preserve the flag.
As
has been the case since 1912, memorial flag cases
are displayed in a variety of formats to suit the bereaved.
Some decide to wall mount their memorial flag case; others
choose to set their memorial flag cases on a sideboard or
as part of a larger indoor memorial display.
To
help you choose the best way to display your memorial flag
case we have listed below some memorial presentation ideas:
Wall
Mounted Display: Memorial flag cases can be mounted
and displayed on a wall in your home. You may want the memorial
flag case to be a standalone memorial, or alternatively
it could form the centerpiece of a larger wall memorial
display that includes photos, letters and other memorabilia.
If you want to wall mount your memorial flag case be sure
to purchase a flag storage and display case that has wall
mounting fixtures. An example of a memorial flag case that
can be wall mounted can be found
here.
Memorial
Setting: Memorial flag cases are ideal if you are looking
to dedicate a room or an area of a room as a memorial display.
Memorial flag cases are versatile enough to blend in with
other memorial memorabilia or to stand as a centerpiece
in the memorial room. If standing memorial flag cases on
flat surfaces, do consider purchasing a memorial flag case
pedestal on which the case can sit.
Tomb
or Crypt: The bereaved may want to dedicate a tomb or
crypt in a mausoleum to the deceased. Memorial flag cases
can be displayed in the tomb or possibly in other areas
of the mausoleum.
Indoor
Memorial Gardens: Memorial flag cases could be used
as a focus for a memorial at an indoor memorial gardens.
