Rothco POW-MIA Flag Rothco

As a veteran, I can tell you that the POW-MIA flag holds deep significance and evokes strong emotions within our community. When I see that flag, it immediately reminds me of the brave men and women who were taken as prisoners of war or went missing in action while serving our country.

The design of the POW-MIA flag itself is powerful. It features a silhouette of a gaunt prisoner of war against a stark black background, symbolizing the darkness and uncertainty they face while in captivity. Above the silhouette is a guard tower with a single strand of barbed wire, a stark reminder of the harsh conditions they endure.

The words “POW” and “MIA” are prominently displayed, standing for “Prisoner of War” and “Missing in Action” respectively. These words are emblazoned in bold white letters to represent our unwavering commitment to bring our missing comrades home and to honor those who suffered as prisoners.

The POW-MIA flag represents a solemn promise that we will never forget the sacrifices made by our fellow service members. It serves as a symbol of hope, reminding us that we must continue our efforts to locate and bring back those who have yet to return.

For veterans like myself, the POW-MIA flag is a constant reminder of the responsibility we carry to advocate for and support our missing and captured comrades. It serves as a reminder that we must do everything in our power to account for every single one of our service members, ensuring that no one is left behind or forgotten.

When I see that flag flying high, whether at a memorial, military base, or any other place of honor, it stirs a mix of emotions within me. It brings forth a sense of reverence, gratitude, and a renewed determination to honor the memory and sacrifice of those who have not returned home.

The POW-MIA flag represents our unwavering commitment to our brothers and sisters who were prisoners of war or went missing in action. It serves as a symbol of remembrance, unity, and the enduring hope that one day, every POW and MIA will be accounted for and welcomed back home with the respect and honor they deserve.

Rothco’s POW-MIA Flag is made of a durable polyester and measures 3’ x 5’. The military flag features the POW-MIA symbol as well as the text “You Are Not Forgotten” underneath. This flag is also available in additional styles.
