You never fly the flag of one country under the flag of another. That is a huge insult And you flew The Union Flag of The United Kingdom under the U.S flag. You also flew it upside down another insult. Do your homework when you have an international visitor.
We flat-out screwed up. It is embarrassing. We thought the person assigned to display the UK flag was knowledgeable of the rules. The person, obviously, was not and we did not double check. I have issued a summary of flag etiquette to all our museum docents and will ensure that the flag is properly displayed in the future. Thank you.
