flag holder

Staff mounting bracket

A flag holder is a device designed to display a flag—a bracket mounted to a wall, a weighted base for indoor use, or a sleeve attached to a pole.

The term also describes a person assigned to hold a flag during ceremonies or events: The flag holders led the parade.

In construction, a flag holder may be a worker who holds a warning flag to direct traffic.
