Flag Precedence
Below is 2 New established rules for Color Guards in a Society I belong to.
I remember reading protocol (cant seem to find it today) that Peter Arnoff stated thusly, US Flag, Betsy Ross, Rev. Historical Flags, State Flags, Society flags last.
Also stated was that the Betsy is an official U S Flag and therefore in section 2 below, should not be made to follow any flags other than the 50 star. Why would the State Flag, Society Host Flag, Other State Society flags all be in advance of the Betsy?
(1)Color Guard unit.
· United States National Flag;
·
Betsy Ross Flag;
· State Flag of the Color Guard Unit;
· Society Flag;
· Other historical flags of the Revolution.
(2)Since the Color Guard participates in many events where the Color Guard will be made up of a combination of guardsmen from multiple states or
units, the protocol is slightly different.
· United States National Flag;
· State Flag of the Host State Society;
· State Flags of other State Societies (carried in order of the date of the state’s admission to
the union);
·
Betsy Ross Flag;
· Society Flags (state society flags first, chapter flags last);
·
Other historical flags of the Revolution.
