Is there a wrong way to place the flags on poles? I have seen straight up and down the pole; around like a candy stripe; around the pole forming a flag looking attachment; and even wrapped in a single wrap so all you can really see is the flag number and not the dates.
I wrap mine so you can see the entire tag. Then cover it with 2 inch cellophane shipping tape. But have seen several other ways. As long as it’s on there you are legal
