PHS JROTC holds flag retirement
PICKENS — On Tuesday, Oct. 12, cadets of the Pickens High School JROTC conducted a flag retirement ceremony 
at Pickens American Legion Post 11.
The ceremony, according to U.S. Flag Code, destroyed worn and tattered flags that are no longer serviceable. Flags to be destroyed were donated to the American Legion by Pickens residents. Following inspection by the cadet battalion leadership, the flags were destroyed by fire in the ceremonial pyre. The ashes of the flags are
buried in the American Legion’s memorial garden and will serve as a bed for newly planted iris. The iris was chosen to be planted on the remains of the flags because this flower symbolizes wisdom, hope, trust and valor.
After the ceremony, the cadets hiked the Doodle Trail and enjoyed a cookout lunch at American Legion Post 11.
If you have a flag that is faded and tattered and want it disposed of properly, drop it off at Market at the Mill with Legionnaire Bob Cirkus. Bob’s Military Memorabilia booth is located in Warehouse No. 1 on the right side of the building. The flags will be given to Pickens JROTC for proper retirement per U.S. Code next March.
All aboard for fun!

A looming legacy
Alice Company, a family-owned diversified holdings company based in Greenville, recently donated a 1954 Hunt fly shuttle loom to the Easley Area Museum on South Pendleton St. Formerly known as Alice Manufacturing, the company produced premium quality yarns and fabrics for nearly a century in Easley. Installed in the company’s Elljean plant in 1954, the loom was later moved to the corporate headquarters on East 1st Avenue in Easley, where it served as a focal point in the lobby of the building. Alice Company president and CEO E. Smyth McKissick IV, right, is the fifth generation of the McKissick family to run the company. His father, E. Smyth McKissick III, left, remains chairman.
