How to Raise the Flag

How to Raise the Flag. Part of the series: How to Handle & Fold the American Flag. Raise the flag by attaching each grommet of the flag to the snap hooks of the flag pole and slowly raising it up and tying it off. Avoid letting the flag touch the ground when being raised by using tips from the owners of a flag and flagpole vendor in this free video on flags.

According to US Flag Edict you "Briskly raise the flag to full staff" as in move the flag quickly up the pole. You lower the flag slowly and respectfully. (Im a life scout in scouts BSA)

where do you get those metal hooks that tie to the rope?

[@johnwagner7144]

I realize you made this comment over a year ago, but to anyone else that might be reading, if you don't want to order snap hooks like those online, you can usually find them in the camping/sporting/hunting section of a Walmart.

Where are the ends of the rope? The neighbors across the street think it's funny to burn the American flag, so I went out and bought a 30 foot pole and a 4'x6' flag that I want put up ASAP but I've never raised a flag before and don't even know where to begin.
