We received the ALR Flag for riding in parades, homecomings, etc.
Now we need to discuss the pole that it will attach to. A few questions need to be asked and responded to.
WHO will ride a 3x5 ALR flag ?
WHAT mounts do you have ?
There are collapsible poles, banner poles, wood, aluminum.
Personally I ride an aluminum Banner pole about 5' tall, 1" OD diameter, with an eagle on top for the American Flag. My mount is a 1"x15" piece of conduit attached to my saddle bag mounts with 2 hose clamps
If I ride a second flag, The pole is 3 pieces of "tent pole" aluminum. This mount is 3/4" PVC attached is the same way as my other pole.
