Note from JWR:

I was a disgusted to see the large number of U.S. flags being waved at Fourth of July celebrations that were marked “Made in China.” The bitter irony of this is almost indescribable, especially when you consider that a good portion of Chinese merchandise for the American consumer market comes from laogai (“Reform Through Labor”) prison factories. Do America a favor, and buy yourself an American-made flag. OBTW, I’ve chosen the “76” Battle of Bennington flag as the official “OPSEC-conscious” flag for SurvivalBlog readers, to identify themselves to fellow readers. And, also BTW, I just had one of my kids create Battle of Bennington Flag logo T-shirts, hats, mugs, and tote bags to add to my CafePress store, for the same purpose. (For those readers that consider it too “high profile” to wear a “SurvivalBlog” hat or T-shirt.) By wearing either a SurvivalBlog logo, or the Bennington Flag, you may providentially meet folks in your town that are fellow SurvivalBlog readers.
