Correct ways to display the Flag
Our flag should always have stars to the left of the picture, fabric floating to the right.	When used on a speakers' platform, the flag is displayed above and behind the speaker.
When hanging with stripes in a vertical position against the wall, the stars should be in the upper left hand corner.	If flown from a staff it should be in the position of honor, at speakers' right, if on a platform. If not, at left of speaker. It should never be used to cover the speakers' desk.
When our flag is carried with other flags in parade it should always claim the place of honor at the right.	When displayed with another flag or flags against a wall from crossed staffs, the flag of the United States should be at its own right, its staff should be in the front.
Things to remember about the Flag
The flag should be displayed on days when the weather permits; especially on national and state holidays and such days as may be proclaimed by the President. On Memorial Day the flag should be half staffed until noon. The flag should never be used as drapery of any sort. It is the custom to display the flag only from sunrise to sunset on buildings and on flagstaffs in the open, but it should not be displayed on days when the weather is inclement. The flag may be displayed at night upon special occasions. Based upon Public Law 829 - 77th Congress
