Mike Perry, commander of Rhinelander post 3143 of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, lights the stack of wooden pallets and American flags Tuesday as part of a flag retirement ceremony held near the Hodag Park Beach House. The VFW was assisted by Boy Scout Troop 660. Burning is the proper way to dispose of an American flag that is no longer in a condition to be flown. Nearly 2,000 flags were retired in the ceremony.
