I think a greater question would be, when did the original Avenue of Flags begin in the United States? This is a large project done in community cemeteries, where the American Legion erects flagpoles and name placards for each deceased veteran. Although the flag their family receives isn't hung on their pole, there is one for each veteran, the family having donated it to the local legion.
