Summary
Flag Day’s coming up, and with it, the 250th Independence Day—so it’s time to brush up on how to properly display the American flag. Passed in 1942, the U.S. National Flag Code outlines key rules: fly it 24/7 if lit at night, avoid bad weather unless the flag’s designed for it, and make sure it’s visible at schools and public buildings. In parades, it must be on the right or front; on vehicles, it should hang freely—not draped. When paired with other flags, Old Glory always gets top or center position. Hanging flat? Let it drape naturally. Across a street? The blue field faces north or east based on direction. On a staff projecting from a building? Union at the top—unless flying at half-staff. It’s more than fabric—it’s a symbol worth honoring with precision. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
