U.S. flag displayed with other national flags

Dear Editor:

In my travels around Ormond Beach, I have noted several locations where our U.S. flag is displayed on the same flagpole with that of another nation below. While I'm sure this was done with the best intentions to respect and honor the other country, the customary signal is the very opposite: The ship or forces of the lower flag have surrendered to that of the upper flag.
