Sheriff Golden was proud to retire 1,295 flags, with dignity and respect, during the Monmouth County Sheriff’s Office’s American Flag Retirement Ceremony at the Monmouth County Fire Academy.

We thank our Veterans Service Council for coordinating the event and the Monmouth Council, Boy Scouts of America Howell Township Troop for properly honoring our flags.

The MCSO Flag Dropbox collects flags that are tattered or damaged and is located outside of the front entrance at the Monmouth County Sheriff’s Office, 2500 Kozloski Road in Freehold.

Retiring these flags in a dignified way shows great respect for our nation, and, those who sacrificed and fought for our freedom. A total of 2661 flags have been retired.
