Country, State, company flag display inside

Jesse Dent · #1 08-24-2007, 08:23 AM

My school has three flags hanging inside a corridor. They hang from the ceiling and they are attached directly to the wall. The American flag is to the observer's left (blue field also to observer's left), then our Georgia state flag, and then our school flag (to the farthest right of the observer).

Other websites that refer to the flag code say that when displaying inside, the American flag should be center and above the others. Is this true for vertical hanging or for only flag staffs?

Hi, Jesse,

The way you're displaying the 3 flags is correct. The reference in the flag code is to the situation in which the flags are displayed on staffs in a "fan" arrangement -- in that case the US flag should be in the middle because it's the highest point of the display. When the flags are at the same height, they should be in the order in which you have them.

Could you tell us more about your school flag, and maybe post a photo?

I will take a photo and post it as soon as possible.
