If you look at the photos of the flag on the moon, you'll noitce the top of the flag has a rod in it to hold it up and make it look like its flying in the breeze. The Apollo 12 astronauts could not get the top bar to latch. It is the only one that hangs down. The other 5 flags all worked as they were designed.

The flag did not flap. Ever heard of inertia? If you planted the flag on the moon, there would be residual energy same as on Earth, the difference being that as The Moon has no atmosphere it would take a lot longer for any residual energy to dissipate. So the force used to plant the Flag , would wobble up the Pole giving the appearance of wind , when in fact its just kinetic energy being released.
