SOS or Save Our Souls
I cant think of a specific instance when the flag was flown upside down, but it is only done when a US position has been overrun or if there is an emergency there.A national flag flying upside down is an international sign of distress.
It is a DISTRESS signal ... calling for Help
The VHF frequency commonly used for maritime emergency communications is 156.8 MHz, designated as Channel 16 (also known as the international distress frequency). This channel is monitored by vessels and coast stations for distress calls and emergencies. In aviation, the emergency frequency is 121.5 MHz, which is also used for search and rescue operations.

Frequency 121.5 MHz is designated as the international distress frequency for aviation. It is used by aircraft to send emergency signals and is monitored by air traffic control and search and rescue organizations. This frequency is primarily utilized for emergency locator transmitters (ELTs) and is also accessible to pilots in distress to communicate their situation. Additionally, it serves as a backup frequency for emergency communications in the aviation sector.
Emergency care is what a person in distress needs. Some needs of a person in distress may be first aid, CPR, ACLS, and others.
The letters SOS in Morse code mean HELP.'SOS' is the Morse code international distress signal. 'We require the material on an SOS basis...' means on 'an emergency basis...'.On the other hand, sos is a medical abbreviation that means "as needed," which would give an answer almost opposite to the original answer. Ah, the hazards of abbreviations!
