Here are some tips to make sure

your tribute is a respectful one:

• Display the flag only between sunrise and sunset on buildings and stationary flagstaffs. The flag may be displayed for twenty-four hours if illuminated in darkness.
  

• Do not display the flag in inclement weather.
  

• Whether displaying the flag vertically or horizontally, make sure the canton of stars is visible on the upper left-hand side.
  

• Do not let the flag touch the ground.
  

• An unusable flag that is damaged and worn and can no longer be displayed should be destroyed in a dignified way by burning.
  

• When not on display, the flag should be respectfully folded into a triangle, symbolizing the tricorn hats worn by colonial soldiers in the Revolutionary War.
