Re: FAA and the City
My favorite view of Harrah’s is to be savored while exiting Borgata. Misery at the Marina.

Time to stop and smell the roses on the Tun Tavern patio. I should have bought a growler there instead of resuming Caesars VP! Next time that is my AP play.

Thank you. Tun Tavern Brewery is named after TT, founded in 1686 in Philadelphia and an Army recruitment site. I’d be better off doing business at local establishments than cruising for a bruising at the casino. That growler would have been a nice buy.

The Tun Tavern is the birthplace of the United States Marines.

Indeed. Their flag seems to be beneath the U.S. flag.

As well it should be. I think there is one occasion where a flag is able to be above the U.S. flag, but I cannot remember the circumstances. Maybe something to do with a certain burial at sea or something like that...

You guys made me look it up, which revealed some interesting history. It seems TripleTriple was on the right track.
Technically, it's a pennant, not another flag. But still interesting.
https://thechaplainkit.com/history/navy ... ust-yield/According to U.S.C. approved by Congress on 2 June 1942 the United States flag flies above any other flag or pennant “except during church services conducted by naval chaplains at sea, when the church pennant may be flown above the flag during church services for the personnel of the Navy.”
