PURE BUNK

 "The flag was slowly lowered while we all stood at a salute, taken off the rope without it touching the ground and placed in a small bonfire started for this purpose.  When the flag was completely burned, a white sheet was raised in its place. 

Nobody pulled down our flag that was flying from the topside flagpole. The photograph is re-enacted propaganda, pure bunk."
