No other flag or pennant should be placed above or, if on the same level, to the right of the flag of the United States of America, except during church services conducted by naval chaplains at sea, when the church pennant may be flown above the flag during church services for the personnel of the Navy.

This is a good question- for clarity it would be like this?:

-----House------
/////porch/////
...X.........V....
.....................
----Street-----
X being the USMC flag, V being the US flag, correct? And pardon my crappy drawing using dashes and slashes.

Actually, this is the proper way for front of your house. The US flag when displayed in public should be on the right. When you have a speaker speaking it should be on speaker's right, audience's left. This is why you always see it on the left when the president speaks. On your house though your US flag should be on the right and your secondary flag (USMC, CO, team, etc.) should be on the left as viewed from the street.

Disagree... it's ALWAYS Flag's right not your right.

I guess I wouldn't trust the US Dept of Veteran Affairs either. Page 3. First diagram. We are talking about displaying it on a similar staff with other flags here, right?

Who's right is it on here?



I mean it is NJ I'll give you that but my guess is they still want to get something like that right.

Your right and the flags right can be the same but are not always the same.

Sorry if the way I said that confused.

but to answer it is on both the flags right and the speakers right.
