Note the pictures in rolling rhoda's post above. NOWHERE does is show more than one flag on the same pole.
Historically, One nation's flag above another's on the same halyard indicates that the vessel or fort or. . . flying the upper flag has captured the vessel or whatever from the other country.
I suppose Americans could perhaps fly the Stars and Stripes above the Union Flag (the flag of the United Kingdom of Great Britain) and the flag of Texas could be flown above the Mexican flag. :B
Just don't fly it above the Canadian Flag or you might see the Pig War start up again. Only residents of WN and BC will get this reference so I posted a link..
