What Is Proper Flag Etiquette?

The American Legion explains the etiquette and reminds people the code is not an enforceable law, but rather a suggested set of guidelines, Heather Brown reports (2:31). WCCO 4 News At 10 – June 13, 2019

I’m older but we were taught this at elementary school. Two kids had flag day and you raised it up in the morning and took it down towards the end of the school day and folded it properly.

My how differently people in Minnesota treat the flag just one year later!!

There is more...if the flag is in a parade or ceremony, everyone stands, right hand over the heart (men remove their hats), and service members salute as it travels by

When I see a photo of a soldier with an American flag shoulder patch on and the stars are to the right it looks terribly wrong to me. I saw it today in a movie and thought at first it must be a mirror image but then realised that’s not possible the soldier must have his right arm patch on his left arm. I then realised this doesn’t work either. An image of the flag should be shown with the stars in the upper left corner but an actual flag on a flagpole has rules based where the stars are next to the flagpole and of course at the top. It can get a little confusing because the direction the flag is blowing and where you are when you are viewing it.

My flag just got unhinged from its 2-piece pole and I found it on the ground outside my front door..the wind obviously got it..since it touched the ground is there some kind of special thing I can do to make it ‘whole’ again? Idk if I’m just talking out of my butt, but I thought if it touched the ground you had to do something with it

He did not mention the gold tassel that was on the flag meaning corporation. he did not mention anything about the toppers those are all violations, Phoenix and the spear mean[ing] war against the people. he didn't mention any of those things and yet, he's standing beside or behind it depend on how you're looking at it the yellow tassel flag.

God is against serving or pledging allegiance to OBJECTS, SYMBOLS, or IMAGES, in the likeness of anything in heaven above, or in the likeness of anything in the earth below [ Exodus 20:3-5 ] & [ Deuteronomy 4:15-19 ]

God is against the pledge of allegiance to the flag and anthem, because the pledge of allegiance to the flag and anthem is, idolatry.

When the US plays the anthem at the sound of music the US stand on their feet and worshipped the image of the star spangled of heaven with a song.

The US made images, in the likeness of the stars of heaven, and set the images in the flag, to serve them.

The US is serving the image of the star spangled of heaven, through the pledge of allegiance to the flag and anthem.

The idols of the nations are high and lifted up on a flag pole and the blind cannot see them because of their unbelief.

But, I will say this...

Our State Flags should always fly above the our National Flag when flown on the same pole! I declare this without reservation! Why? Because our founders intended and set constructed our country to be a bottom-up society with the Federal Government at the bottom. My Florida Flag will always fly above my American Flag! As a matter of fact, my Florida Flag will fly above my Dixie Flag, which will fly above my American Flag!
