Ayden Hodges,15, of Boy Scout Troop 1861 salutes as the first of more than 150 flags is presented for retirement during a ceremony Saturday at Peace Lutheran Church. Hodges,
whose father serves in the military, said he wanted to properly retire the flags for his Eagle Scout project because he understands the commitment and sacrifice members of the
military make and believes honoring the flag is important. " I know that flag is what they represent. That's what they stand for," he said. For more photos of the flag retirement
ceremony, go to theeagle.com/gallery.
