Comment by Matthew:
I think that this is a good use of the US flag symbolism - I have said on some other images using the flag that "Without wishing to offend, the patriotic call implicit in the flag may switch off some non-US voters - very slightly cheapens the image for me as it feels as though the symbol is being used to evoke an emotive response that the picture would not otherwise demand." Here, I think that you have managed to combine it with a little more dignity and relevance than most.

However, I am not a fan of the selective desat - too much white here for a full desat to work, I think. Maybe a muted tone would have worked better?

would have been better if everything was black and white, except the flag coffin. soldiers in color take away from the effect.

I am making two passes on this Challenge. I will vote on your photo then return later(before voting is over) to comment on what I like and dislike about your shot. You can take the comments however you wish and I will try not to be mean. Just don't take it the wrong way.

Seems like you were there at the right time. Good shot. The only thing I would change is crop some off the right of the shot.
