In my opinion no flag except a U.S. flag... maybe a state/country flag (wherever the base is).
Should not have anything that will break up the unity of the operations.
It is obvious from this post that people in the military get too butthurt about anything and need their freedoms taken away while serving.
edit: and lols at people screaming about homosexuals. In my culture homosexuals actually had a special role... they were seen as "two-spirited" people and respected... same thing with women. Where the hell did this mentality of othering people come from?! It almost makes me think some people on here are homosexuals in the closet or something... why would you even waste a minute of your day caring what 2 random people do that has no effect on you, unless you are upset you cannot practice your own fantasies or something.

Cawlin; you more or less agree with Ordal. And yet you've spent like 2 pages arguing against him for the sake of pride, not wanting to lose, or just plain ignorance of what his opinion is.
Ignore your hypothetical tangent situations and read his opinion. It's pretty easy to understand, and it isn't in any way discriminatory or wrong.
He wants to argue the matter on the basis of the word "right" vs. "allowed". It is an exceptionally nitpicky and trollish argument, even for this place. I stated my point clearly, he has come around to stating that he agrees with me but wants to make a point about things being a "right" vs. being "allowed". I won't argue that because it's not germane to the issue. You want it to be germane because you want to have some sort of semantic celebration. That makes you both idiots and beneath further consideration.

Can't even post a picture correctly let alone make a coherent argument to a question as it is asked, what a failure you are. Also apparently I'm not beneath consideration based on the fact you responded yet again

No. It is a US military installation serving no specific interest but this country's. It shouldn't allow for any unique flag except for the battalion or whatever is stationed there (IF those people want to advertise where they are staying). I don't exactly recall seeing any "SEAL TEAM SIX!" flags flying around anywhere.
So no, sorry but keep all of the personal beliefs out of this. Military enlistees should be serving the military, their higher calling, not the other way around.

i have a picture from Gulf War 1 where me and another guy got our hands on a South Carolina state flag (the one with the dixie symbol within) and ran it up on top of 15 or so Cammie Netting poles - thru the heater stack vent in the GP Tent Large.
Shortly after we put it up, we got called out to the COs office because the base chaplain took offense to the fact that it had a slavery connotation to it.
In the end, we just took it down.
