Instructions
1
Make sure the location you select leaves enough room for your flag to fully extend, without wrinkles or sagging.
2
String up a rope across the area where you will hang the flag. Make sure the rope is taut. The American flag must always be hung higher than any other flags on display.
3
Clip the flag to the rope. Make sure the blue/star section of the flag (known as the Union side) is facing the audience's left. Determine this by taking a look at where most of the audience will enter the venue or view the flag. If the flag is hung in the middle of a room, use the main entrance as your guide.
4
Apply the same logic from step three when hanging the American flag vertically, in the middle of the street. When hanging the flag this way, the flag should be clipped to the rope vertically, and the union section of the flag should face the north (when hung across a street that runs east and west). The union section of the flag should face the east (when hung across a street that runs north and south).
