Odd Flag Damage

[wood714]

I put a flag on my shed a couple years ago. It originally was on a 6 foot pole that allowed the flag to brush against the shed roof and would fray the flag. I bought a 8 foot pole, and a new flag that claimed to be USA made less than a year ago, the flag cant touch anything now.

A couple days ago I noticed a big square missing from it. No sign of where the missing part is, I know nobody messed with it unless they jumped the locked 6 foot gate, and brought a 6 foot ladder with them and avoided the camera facing the shed.

Anyone ever see a flag do this?

Got a new one today that I'm sure is USA made.

Tag on my new flag.

That is truly weird. I bought my flag from Allegiance and haven't had any problem. Maybe there was a defect in the weave of the fabric? Might try contacting the company and seeing if they would be willing to replace it.

I have had that happen with the printed flags that I've received from a donation to some service organizations. I can't recall any problem with sewn stripes flags from Allegiance.

I guess it will stay a mystery. The new replacement is flying proud.
