The order to remove Old Glory from work trucks or be terminated has created an army of iron-workers and riggers who will not comply. Industrial Piping Incorporated is a subcontractor for a plant expansion at CF Industries fertilizer plant in Louisiana. The crew has been working to complete the project since December 7, 2016, rolling onto the job each day with flags waving in the backs of their trucks. They are hard working Americans just doing their jobs.
Nothing had ever been said until that fateful day and then the gloves came off. Lose the flag or lose your job. The crew was furious and refused the order and showed up to work on Friday, flying their flags and prepared to lose their jobs. The crew, Jarome Hatch, Jim Lovel, Trevor Lewis, Robert Griffiths, Cody Johnson and Daryl McEntyre had the support of the community who got involved and planted American Flags in front of the CF Industry offices.

Great job standing your ground
Not to worry hopefully that Obama will be gone soon an people can live their life again
the American flag needs to start meaning something again that obama has tried so hard to change
This is America; fly that American flag. It’s time we took pride in our country again. Obama did all he could to destroy that.
Thank you Patriots.
Iron workers with nerves of steel…love your patriotism!
Stand yet ground boys! That’s Our flag!
Wait is that a typo? “Since Dec 7th 2016” did I sleep for 10 days or is it Dec 8th?
Less then 60 days no one will demand our flag be taken down
Unbelievable
