I fly this day and night while aboard. No light at night.
When it gets at all tattered I replace it.
You wee rebel you!

Yes, I can't see putting a four and a half foot flag on my stern. Three feet looks fine.

Always somebody....
Greetings,
Mr. BB. "So you ignore the etiquette that says to take it down at night?" As I understand it, IF the flag is lit (illuminated at night) one can fly it 24/7.
So you ignore the etiquette that says to take it down at night? Oh, you rebel. The shame of it all. lol
I'm patriotic enough to want to display it as it used to be displayed.
After all how could "the rockets red glare give proof that the flag was still there" if they had lowered it for night?
We just had our opening day ceremonies and the programs that were handed out to guests and dignitaries, had the words to the National Anthem. I thought it was peculiar until someone reminded me that the National Anthem is now verboten in some school districts. Ditto for the Pledge of Allegiance.
Seriously?
Do you know where?
I know prayer is in many, but the Anthem and Pledge I hadn't heard about.
... terrorists ...
Just think, if those bunch of terrorists hadn't started in the 1770s we would have the lovely God Save The Queen!
Greetings,
Mr. Mako. "...depends on which side you're on." Boy! You've got THAT right!
Perhaps this thread is getting too political. Maybe we should change to a nice civilized subject like which is the best anchor or how wonderful the 6-71 is?
Another really good anthem for words and music is "Oh Canada". .
Wifey B: All 4 verses are beautiful. It's equivalent in beauty is "America the Beautiful". Also an easy song to sing. The range of the Star Spangled Banner is too great for the average person.
