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.

Keep it in the wind
HE ACCIDENTLY FELL 30 SECONDS LATER, SEE THERE IS A GOD.
Dear God, is this article terrible. If they are driving company trucks, they have to follow company regulations. Being as they are union, I guarantee they drive company trucks. I’m all for patriotism, but flying flags in the back of your truck in an industrial setting is just asking for trouble. Fly your flag in your own personal vehicle and there won’t be a problem.
THEY COME TO SEE COUSIN OVOMIT
They are union. I guarantee it is a company truck.
Tell them to shove it.
Who exactly told them that they had to remove the flags ? Publish that and then let’s get everyone to Boycott their business. THIS is AMERICA. If you don’t LOVE it, then Leave it !!!
Just some more b******t.
I’d fly it anyway
