We have numerous U.S. Flags in our collection storage.  Some are folded, 
some are rolled, some are ceremonially folded (military triangle), etc. I am 
reorganizing my textile storage room and I am curious, what is the "best" way 
to store U.S. flags with professional integrity/standards while maintaining 
respect and dignity for the national flag?  

If rolled storage is the answer, I ask this. If a flag was used in a funeral with 
military rights, should it be folded in a military triangle? And, if it is already in a 
military triangle, should it remain so....

Thank you in advance.
