Americans, Do you cross your heart when the flag is being raised and national anthem is being played?

@eyeno You are awesome! 🇺🇸 ❤

@BillyMack I’m not trying to be a smart Alec but “cross your heart”, generally means hand over heart around here! 🙂

@Unefilletrescurieuse ok.

@ron122 That’s great… it’s what real patriots do! 🇺🇸

@TexChik
Regional Variations
“While "cross your heart" may be used colloquially in some regions, including the South, it is not the official term recognized in flag etiquette. The official guidelines specify that individuals should place their right hand over their heart, regardless of regional expressions.”

While it may be colloquially used, none the less it is used here in my part of the world by many of us! 🇺🇸 🙂
