Where are the flags?

My grandfather was a veteran and was very diligent about the proper way to fly our flag. I have been flying my flag for the holiday and was wondering why I don’t see more people flying the flag?

Actually, thousands of flags are flown daily. As long as the flag is made of weather proof material and can be illuminated, it can be flown 24 hours per day. Interesting, two of the places that the flag is flown 24 hours per day are not in the United States of America. The flag is flown around the clock on the moon and at the South Pole. If a flag becomes torn or in disrepair, there are guidelines set by the flag code that outlines its destruction.
