For the Navy folks Flag protocol

Is this American displayed correctly?http://img.tapatalk.com/d/12/10/19/9uhegu6y.jpg

Yes.

Quote:

The usual argument given by those that think it is wrong to fly the national ensign from the gaff is that the national ensign is flying below a club burgee or other flag contrary to the Flag Code. Notice that even when the national ensign is flown from the stern of a ship, it is lower in height than other flags flying on the ship. When the ensign is flown from a gaff-rigged pole, a flag flown at the top of the mast is not considered above the ensign because it is not being flown directly above the ensign on the same halyard.

Thanks for the detailed explanation.

The church pennant may fly above the Ensign on the same mast / halyard.
