It is never incorrect to display an outdated version of Old Glory.
My grandfather was never ashamed to show off to his grandchildren
his tatoo of a 46 star version of Old Glory on his arm.  Above
the flag was a scroll that said "USN", and below a scroll that
said "1898".  Nobody ever suggested to him that he needed to get
an updated version.  His version will always be the one I know
best, along with all the stories he used to tell about her.
