The only place in the U.S. where it is legal to fly a foreign flag even with the U.S. flag, is at the U.N. No foreign flag is ever to be flown above the U.S. flag......Page 11: The wording of § 7(g) is identical to that of the original Flag Code enacted in 1942. 43 The second sentence of § 7(c) prohibiting flying international flags equal in height to the flag of the United States was not in the original Flag Code. This provision was added in 1953. 44 The legislative history of this amendment clearly states that is purpose was to “make it an offense against the United States to display the flag of the United Nations or any other national or international flag equal to, above, or in a position of superior prominence or honor to, or in place of, the flag of the United States at any place within the United States or any possession or territory thereof,....” 45 The only exception recognized is at the headquarters of the United Nations..............senate.gov/CRSReports/crs-publish.cfm?pid=%270E%2C*PLS%3F%22%20%20%20%0A
