Answer:

It should be patriotism, military service, and family.

Step-by-step explanation:

Patriotism: The red stripes on the U.S flag proclaim the fearless courage and integrity of American men whilst fighting in U.S wars.

Military service: If someone is/was in the military they use the U.S flag to represent that. Similar to the Family response, the Folded Flag is handed to families at memorial services of their loved one, who served in the military.

Family: The Blue star in the center dates back to World War I when military families hung a solid blue star banner on their windows or doors representing a loved one on active duty. Also, the Folded Flag beneath the stars represents the flag that is handed to each family at the memorial service of their loved one.
