The American Flag is a totemic symbol of pride for our great nation. It’s a representation of the freedoms, beliefs, and values we stand for.
It also has the honor of being the first flag on the surface of the moon. That alone should be a reason to be proud of being an American!
And if you want to display your love for our great nation by displaying the beautiful Star-Spangled Banner at your home or office, you’ll need to follow specific rules
One of the things you need to remember is that the flag can only be flown upside-down during an emergency. It’s strictly prohibited for anyone to display the flag upside-down.
You can only dip it when sending out a distress signal.
You’ve probably seen people wear the American flag as clothing. You’ve seen it printed on t-shirts, skirts, blankets, and even curtains. But the law has forbidden anyone using the flag as clothing or as drapery.
It cannot be used as embroidery or for advertising purposes. You can’t print the flag on napkins, table cloth, boxes, or anything that will be used for temporary purposes. This is because it’s disrespectful to discard the flag.
However, uniforms can have flags on them. The military, fire brigade, police officers, and any other patriotic organization is allowed to use the flag on their uniforms.
When it comes to displaying the flag, you need to keep one thing in mind: the flag cannot touch the ground. If you’re displaying it on a mast, make sure the union (the blue part) of the flag is at the peak and that you're displaying it on the highest point.
If you don’t have a mast, you need to make sure that the flag is displayed openly. It should be crease-free and should fly as freely as possible.
When displaying the flag on the streets or during a parade, make sure you’re displaying it vertically. As a rule of thumb, if the road transposes from north to south, you must make sure the flag faces the east.
And if it runs from west to east, you need to make sure the flag is towards the north.
And last but not least, when displaying the flag on your car, you should invest in a flagpole. It’s impolite to hang it through the window as this will dip the flag, having it face the ground.
There are plenty of other rules you’ll need to follow. But these are a few of the many rules to keep in mind.
If you’re looking for high-quality American flags that are made in the U.S., you’ve come to the right place. Federal Flags is known for its quality products. We use SolarMax to make all our flags.
