- King Charles III's visit to the United States concluded with a notable 'diplomatic blunder' at Arlington National Cemetery.
- During a ceremony where the King and Queen Camilla paid their respects at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, the Union flag was observed flying incorrectly upside down.
- Sky News correspondent Mark Stone highlighted the error, and the Flag Institute confirmed that flying the flag upside down is 'most improper', detailing the correct orientation of its diagonal white and red stripes.
- The King laid a wreath and Queen Camilla a posy of flowers during the solemn event, which was attended by U.S. Army Major General Antoinette Gant and Monica Crowley, before the King departed for Bermuda.
- This incident marked the second flag-related error during the royal visit, following an earlier mistake where 15 Australian flags were mistakenly displayed in Washington D.C. prior to the royals' arrival, which were subsequently removed.
