Flag Placement Request


On the Sunday before Memorial Day, our Flag Runner Volunteers will provide a virtual connection between the heroes laid to rest at Fort Snelling and the people who cannot personally visit the cemetery. They will venture out to locate the site from each request, take a photo, and share the image on our website and Facebook feed so you can see and share the memorial of your loved one on Memorial Day.

  • PROVIDE YOUR CONTACT INFORMATION

  • PROVIDE SECTION & SITE INFORMATION

  • PROVIDE NAME & MILITARY INFO OF YOUR HERO

  • STAY TUNED TO FLAGSFS.COM OVER MEMORIAL DAY
