BLUE STAR – IN SERVICE BANNERS AND FLAGS<\/i><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n


\nThe In Service Banner<\/a> was designed in 1917 by WWI Army Captain Robert Quessner, the service star banner is traditionally hung in the window of the home of a person who has a family member currently serving in the U.S. military.\u00a0 That person can be a son, daughter, wife, husband, etc.\u00a0 The blue star represents one family member currently in service; a gold star on a banner represents a family member who was killed during service.\u00a0 Seeing these banners today in windows of homes reminds every one of us that war is not something that happens overseas on far-away lands, but is something that affects every street and neighborhood in our country. \u00a0One, Two and Three Blue Star Banners<\/a> are 8″ x 15″ with crossbar and gold cord tassel.\u00a0 Also available are 3’x 5′ flags.<\/span><\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
