My company recently opened a new facility in Charlotte and we would like to display the American flag along with a flag for each branch of our military service and a POW MIA flag. I have read online regarding etiquette, but one area so far I haven’t found an answer I am hoping you can help with.
We are planning to display the flags hanging from our ceiling. As our customers enter our front door the American flag will be in the far left position.
As I understand it, from left to right we should display in this order:
•America Flag
•Army
•Marine Corps
•Navy
•Air Force
•Coast Guard
Where in this order should the POW MIA flag be displayed?
i have a presentation in school about the history of the Marines and i would like to use a Marine Cor flag. in terms of folding the flag, is it the same as the American flag? and what other rules are there for display and carry? i really want to make sure that i am not doing anything wrong that could be taken as disrespectful.
Rooster, so if i don’t fold it(which was what i meant to ask is if it is folded) then how do i transport it to the presentation?
Or is it something were only Marines or ex Marines are allowed to use it?

Better flag pole parts means better flag life value. That’s our thing at www.flagdesk.com! In this video, we look at the beaded retainer ring, which has been worn down and is now contributing to the flags fraying. http We marvel at the cost of beautiful flag pole’s just like these on the Ball State University campus flying flags that can no longer offer the flag ‘long flag life’. The power, energy and vitality of the flag cut short by snags and barbs on flag pole parts. Parts that broke down long ago and now the flags pay the price. Inexpensive replacement parts that are easy flag pole maintenance are only a matter of clicks away with minimal information. We’re flag runners, running to your flag pole to examine the components that literally allow the flag pole to work effectively. We find it all the time, a flag pole aging more than 3 to 5 years, we know right away that your flag dealer is just selling you flags when they should be getting your flags to sell themselves. What that means is your flags last long enough to pay off for you. We take care of parts to pay off our commitment ‘to give your people and flag to follow’. This video showcases a flag pole approximately 3-4 years old. The hardware for the flag pole parts, specifically the ‘beaded retainer rings’, are causing all the trouble. Just this little problem that has such a simple and inexpensive fix is being over looked. The flag manager just probably has no idea what to do, look for, what to ask for to get it …
I am not drilling or nailing, I am simply just trying to figure out how to hang or stick a American flag to a brick wall. Possibly tape or something like that? Any ideas?
