flag etiquette
 

Flags at the stern are flown at half mast for the requisite number of days.
Flying a national flag at half mast is a federal 'decision' not a local one.
So Podunk Corners, Heartland, USA cannot fly the federal flag at half mast
for a local hero. while flying 'Old Glory' at half mast for two state
department idiots who killed themselves in a car wreck in the former
Yugoslavia a number of years ago was perfectly fine.

For most yachts the flags are permanently fixed on the stern staffs. It's
moot at that point.

What,
if anything do we do with a flag on a staff at the stern?

I've been told 30 days.

How high will you fly the flag when Clinton dies?

I don't count him as a President.

I think I'll put it all the way up and celebrate for a month.

Out of respect for the office that he held, I would fly at half mast.

First count the silverware, and check the china.

I hope you do. Then, you'll get to spend some time with your
