In support of a statewide flag retirement initiative, Buffalo State’s University Police Department (UPD) will collect worn and tattered American flags at the Chase Hall Dispatch Desk from Monday, May 13, to Monday, May 20. The collected flags will be disposed of as part of the Memorial Watchfire, hosted by the Vietnam Veterans of America Chapter 103, on Sunday, May 26, at the New York State Fairgrounds in Syracuse, New York.

All collected flags will be properly folded before disposal and delivered to the Senator Walter J. Mahoney State Office Building, 65 Court Street in Buffalo, for transport to the Memorial Watchfire. Questions about this undertaking may be e-mailed to UPD.
