Is this flag for indoor or outdoor use?

This flag is also made with grommets. The design is the same; the finish changes how it mounts and where it is displayed.

Is this flag made in the USA?

Yes. This flag is made in the USA.

How is this flag displayed with the American flag?

The American flag takes the position of honor.
