    Navy Reserve Sailors from Navy Operational Support Center Jacksonville and scouts from Boy Scout Troop 25 and Pack 25 render a salute after placing unserviceable flags in the fire during an American flag retirement ceremony on Naval Air Station Jacksonville. When a U.S. flag becomes worn, torn, faded, or badly soiled, the flag should be retired with dignity and respect befitting it. Approximately 25 flags, many of them donated by a volunteer of the USS Adams Museum, were retired during the ceremony that took place on Flag Day.
