Flag Pole

[olevetonahill]

So's I been wantin to put up a Flag pole , never could find one anywhere.

Then I memberd I had takin down an Old TeeVee antenna.
So i went to my junk pile and dug out the pole , i cut off all that antenna stuff put a wire wheel to it to knock off the rust and ****. Now I just got to finish paintin it , attach , My pulleys and Air Craft cable I bot .
Attach my OU Flag and Im good to go .

soon as I can get another Merican Flag ill put that on top :cool:

Make sure you light that beyotch. Otherwise, you'll have to stand Retreat each evening and do that flag-folding rigamorole. I recommend wiring up a car headlight to shine on it. ;)

Here's a question. All of my neighbors leave their US Flags out - ALL the time- Rain/Shine/Dark. Is this not improper flag etiquette? Am I remembering the scouting days incorrectly?
We bring ours in at night and never put it out when there's a chance of rain. Weird thing is, one neighbor was in the army back in 62-65 and his looks like crap.

AS long as its Lit ( as in a Light shining up at it) , Its proper to fly it 24/7rain or shine.
Like Homey said If you dont have a light shining up at it ya need to take it down at Dusk ;)

[sooneron]

Yeah none of them have lights shining on their flags. I was on flag detail in Elem school back in Houston and I remember having to run outside to take the flag down in the rainstorms. And Houston has some sick elephants and dogs rainstorms.

[olevetonahill]

That may have been a school thing , Ive never heard of taking in the flag during a rain storm .

I could be wrong , Ill let some one else answer and maybe we can find out

Yea if they dont have a light on it at night then they aint doing it right ;)

It used to be that the flag was to be brought in during rainstorms. They were all made of cotton. Now, proper procedure allows you to leave the flag out during a storm if it is an "all weather" flag. Most are now days. My dad, a WWII vet brings his in if it is going to rain. He is old school.
