These were in a recycle bin next to a cemetery's utility building. Surprised to see this. FYI, the lid was closed but I could see these sticking so I opened said lid and took the picture.

ARRC salutes flags of joining Estonia, Sweden, and Poland
A national flag raising ceremony at Imjin Barracks on Wednesday honoured the arrival of three new participating member nations. This October, Estonia, Poland, and Sweden has sent officers to join the permanent staff of Headquarters Allied Rapid Reaction Corps.
“Today marks a very special day in the history of the ARRC with the addition of these three nations. Their commitment is very welcome and a testament to the solidarity and success of a multinational approach to collective defence,” said Lt. Gen. Tim Evans, CBE DSO, commander of the ARRC.
“I enjoy the working culture the different nationalities. And every nation has something to offer that helps in understanding the HQ,” said Lt. Col. Pukk, a new plans officer from Tallinn.
Referring to Exercise ARRCADE FUSION 2015, Pukk said “This is important to Estonia because we are united with NATO and happy the HQ ARRC will be in the Baltic States.”
“In my short time here I have seen how all the nations work. Everyone works toward the same effort to develop a good plan that will work in everyone’s interest,” said Maj. Larbol, from Stockholm, Sweden
“Poland and the UK have a strong history. We are following similar priorities and values which are to ensure peace and stability,” said the Polish Army officer.
The additions mark a significant step in one of the most diverse, multi-national headquarters of the 9 NATO Rapid Deployable Corps HQs, all of which are capable to command up to 60,000 troops. This year the ARRC remains on standby as a Joint Task Force HQ for Small Land Operations, ready if called upon by the North Atlantic Council (NAC) and SACEUR. Currently, the ARRC is preparing for their annual training Exercise ARRCADE FUSION 2015 in the Baltics. Two more nations are scheduled to become permanent members of ARRC before the end of the year.

Flagpole at the foot of the beach access road in Port Stanley, ON. I don't recognize the one on the left; presumably it's the town flag, or perhaps the county (er, Elgin?)
A little pin that I used to use back in the day when doing business with my US colleagues!

Almost international flags. Swiss adore their flags: national, flags of cantons, flags of cities.
The upper one is a flag with all swiss cantons.

Was waiting a long time to take this photo!!!
The Faroe Islands are a self governing province of Denmark, located in the North Atlantic ocean. The flag was first used in 1919, and officially approved by the Faroese parliament in 1931. The first country to formally recognise the Faroese flag was Great Britain on 25th April 1940, during the German occupation of Denmark, and ever since this date has been officially celebrated by the islanders as Faroese Flag Day!

The stars and stripes give a touch of patriotism to these tall windows. Even if the windows are featured on the condemned Goncho apartments in Washington, Iowa. Two dozen people were evacuated from the building on January 17, 2013, because toxic methamphetamine chemicals were discovered throughout. Sadly, some are now referring to the rural community as Methington, Iowa.
