United States Power Squadrons®

The Flag and Etiquette Committee has approved a special ensign to be used for the 100th anniversary. It may only be flown from 2013-2014, and then it will be retired.

All Districts in USPS will receive a commemorative ensign at the 2013 Annual Meeting in Jacksonville. District commanders will take the ensign back to their respective districts to use throughout the year. Squadrons will be able to order a special ribbon to be designed by its members according to the flag company’s specifications. When completed, it will be attached to their District 100th anniversary ensign. All ribbons and ensigns will return to Jacksonville in 2014 and be part of a special flag ceremony during the opening ceremonies of the Governing Board Meeting on Saturday morning.

Commemorative Ensigns will be for sale at Ship’s Store at the Detroit Governing Board Meeting as well as on-line at www.shopusps.org and at Ships Store in Jacksonville 2013 and San Antonio. As part of a 100 year old organization, we hope you will fly your ensign proudly and as often as possible.
