Is it disrespectful to save the stars on a US flag for display during a US flag retirement ceremony?

As I have been researching the proper way to conduct a flag retirement ceremony, I have come across many ways to perform the ceremony. All of them burn the flag as per U.S. code. Some cremonies say the field of blue should be cut from the flag thus rendering it no longer a flag. Most ceremonies do not cut the flag before burning. It is my opinion, as a retired Master Sgt with over 20 years in military service and as a disabled veteran, that as long as the flag is being properly retired by fire and that it is done with honor there is nothing wrong with saving and displaying the field of blue.
