Episode Details

Celebrate America’s 250th birthday right—with the official flag code you didn’t know you needed. Since 1942, President Roosevelt’s law spells out how to fly Old Glory: from sunrise to sunset (or lit at night), weatherproofed and always visible at public places. Raise it fast, lower it respectfully, and never let it touch the ground. In parades, it’s front and center; on vehicles, it hangs free; with other flags, it’s always top or center. When mounted, the union (blue stars) faces left when flat, north or east when across a street, and always at the pole’s top when vertical. This isn’t just tradition—it’s protocol for honoring what the flag represents, especially as we head into a big anniversary.
