Denmark's flag.
Denmark's flag, known as the Dannebrog, is the oldest continuously used national flag in the world. Legend has it that it fell from the sky during a battle in the early 13th century, leading to a Danish victory.
Denmark, in fact it's the world oldest national flag.
It's half-staff, not half mast (I made the same mistake earlier today). The United States Flag Code calls for the U. S. flag to be flown at half-staff only until noon only on Memorial Day. Every other day on which the flag is flown at half-staff, it is until sunset.
The oldest national flag still in existence, that of Denmark, dates back to the 13th century.
