: "The world should know of those who give so much for liberty.
The dearest thing in the world to a father and mother. Their children." Blue and Gold Star are the only colors specified for use.
Blue Star Flag display started with Captain Robert B. Quiesser, an Ohio National Guard Veteran in 1916 with designing the original flag. During WWII, VFW actively promoted the flag through window cards and the assistance of radio stations.
They are the Blue Star Mothers of America, Inc., whose members hang blue stars in their windows whenever their children join the armed forces, and soon it became a tradition to hang the Blue Star Flag in the window all over USA.
Blue Star Service Banners are displayed by families, who have a loved one serving in the armed forces including the US Army, Navy, Air Force, US Marine Corps, National Guard and Reserves of all military departments. The banner displayed in the front window of a home shows a family's pride in their loved one serving in the military, and reminds others that preserving America's freedom demands much. It can also be displayed by businesses and organizations as well, the tradition continues.
