Since its start in 2015, Flags of Valor (FOV) grew from a two person garage operation to a nationally heralded veteran manufacturing company. Founded by two veteran special operations pilots, FOV specializes in hand built wooden products that showcase American values. At its creation, they dedicated Flags of Valor to being American made, empowering veteran hands, and robustly giving back to charity.  In just over four years they’ve proven this commitment by creating more than 65 veteran jobs, raising $1,050,000 for veteran and first responder charities, and delivering over 97,000 hours of American manufacturing labor.  

The founders, Fairfax and Loudoun County natives, share a fundamental belief that our nation’s war veterans are one of its greatest resources.  Every veteran entered military service lacking the technical skills of their military specialty, however they learned quickly and adapted to diverse environments.  They’ve witnessed these strengths transferred to industry.  A strong empathy for the veteran journey led them to purposely pursue the most troubled veterans who are dealing with Post Traumatic Stress or physical disabilities from their military service.  The environment at Flags Of Valor serves as a sanctuary for them…a place where they can convert raw materials into beautiful works of art.  Flags of Valor built a culture where camaraderie, shared mission, and love of country resonates deeply with every teammate.
