BASIC FLAG ETIQUETTE
Over the years we have compiled a bushel basket of notes with customers' questions about flag etiquette. With that feedback, we have put together basic flag etiquette. Prepared by Andrew with Flags And Jewelry Store in Denville, NJ.

The flag should never be used for any advertising purpose.
It should not be embroidered, printed, or otherwise impressed on such articles as cushions, handkerchiefs, napkins, boxes, or anything intended to be discarded after temporary use. Advertising signs should not be attached to the staff or halyard.
The flag should not be used as part of a costume or athletic uniform, except that a flag patch may be used on the uniform of military personnel, fireman, policeman and members of patriotic organizations.
