A burial flag has different dimensions than a standard American flag. It's sized to fit properly over a coffin. I don't know how this particular flag wound up being sold at an auction, but I know what it was and decided to buy it, not knowing what I'd do with it. At 5' X 9', it's a big flag, but I think that it makes the proper statement.
The top edge of the flag is bout 12 feet from the floor, and it watches over the firing line.
I think that it is just right.

Excellent!!! Thank you!
Yep, looks good up there!
At some point in a largely forgotten discussion at work, I mentioned that the flag I was born under didn't have fifty stars.
Without missing a beat my younger coworker asked, "Did it have thirteen?"
That was pretty funny.
The flag looks good.
