The Informative Link at the Bottom of This Little Quote Box said:8. When the flag is displayed in a manner other than by being flown from a staff, it should be displayed flat, whether indoors or out. When displayed either horizontally or vertically against a wall, the union should be uppermost and to the flag's own right, that is, to the observer's left. When displayed in a window it should be displayed in the same way, that is with the union or blue field to the left of the observer in the street. When festoons, rosettes or drapings are desired, bunting of blue, white and red should be used, but never the flag.
(Emphasis added by me)
If the Union (the blue field of stars) is supposed to be on the upper left corner as viewed by the observer, why do our military uniforms display it in the upper right hand corner?
I know there isn't a LAW, one way or the other, but there is tradition, and as anal as this country is about left and right, this one truly baffles this average American Joe.
