Remember, others in the unit also need to see that American flag, or someone is dead! If the flag is concealed, and it takes you walking right up the person to see it then you could be dead.

Seeing it at a distance will give you enough time to distinguish friend from foe.

I hope this helps. "fury from the sky"
