The most common type of flag mount has two holes into which you can insert the flagpole. The upper one displays the flag at about a 45 degree angle. This is the normal position. The lower hole displays the flag with the staff about parallel to the ground. This is the halt staff position. Some holders are adjustable so that the staff can be lowered to horizontal.
