United States Flag Code and Etiquette
The Rules:
- Another nation's flag shouldn't be displayed on the same halyard as the American Flag.
- In a group of state, local and/or society flags, the American Flag should be flown highest and in the center.
- The American Flag should be hoisted first and lowered last, when flown with other flags on adjacent staffs.
- If the American Flag is carried in a procession with other flags, it should be to its own right or in the center of a line of flags.
- If a state, local or society flags are flown on the same halyard with the American Flag, the American Flag should be at the top.
- When the American Flag is displayed against a wall with another flag, it should be on the (flag's own) right with its staff in front of the other flag.
- When displayed with other flags, the size of the American Flag should be larger than the other flags or relatively equal to the size of the largest flag. Other flags should not overshadow the American Flag in any way.
- The American Flag should be flown higher than lesser flags. If the flags are displayed on the same level, the American Flag should be flown to the (flag's own) right of all other flags. The right is a position of prominence.
- If the flags of other nations are displayed with the American Flag, they should be of equal size and at equal heights on separate staffs at a time of peace. The American Flag should be displayed to the (flag's own) right but not higher than other national flags.
- Displaying the Flag with other Flags
And dumb ass Biden would have an administration totally ignoring the deaths of Americans protecting this flag, our country and our people said NOTHING. DID NOTHING!
Truly no excuse for flying the LGBTQ flag at the same height and in the middle! Totally disrespectful!!!
