This bill designates the Honor and Remember Flag as a state symbol in New Hampshire to honor those who died in the line of duty or as a result of their military service. The existing law, RSA 4:13-h, II, is repealed and reenacted to include new language that recognizes the Honor and Remember Flag, created by the national organization Honor and Remember Inc., as a symbol of remembrance for the service and sacrifice of New Hampshire's Armed Forces members and their families. The bill mandates that the flag be displayed daily at the New Hampshire state veterans cemetery in Boscawen and at the State House on the last Sunday in September.
The bill also specifies that the governor is responsible for ordering the display of the Honor and Remember Flag at these locations. The effective date of the act is set for 60 days after its passage. This legislation aims to provide a formal recognition of the sacrifices made by service members and their families, ensuring that their contributions are honored and remembered within the state.
