The Way to Display

There is a right way and a wrong way to display our American flag. It stands for America and the people who risked their lives for it and our flag. Here are some of the ways to display the American flag:

• The flag should be flown from sunrise to sunset.
• In the morning, raise the flag quickly. At night time, bring it down slowly.
• If you're going to fly it at night it should have a light on it.
• The flag should not be flown when it's raining or when the weather is bad.
• After a tragedy or death, you should fly your flag at half staff for 30 days. It's called "half staff".
• The American flag is always on top any other flag such as your state flag are below it.
• Never put your flag upside down.
• Never let your flag touch the ground.
• Fold your flag when it is not flying. Don't throw it in a drawer or box.
• When your flag is old and worn out, get a new one. Old flags should be burned or buried. Don't throw it in the trash.
