How Did This Happen? Is this wrong?

Is it still happening? Should it happen?
There is a protocol for marching in procession with other flags.
So, are there any flags of countries that we are not allowed to march in procession with?

WATCH THE VIDEOS BELOW AND DECIDE FOR YOURSELF IF YOU AGREE.
And if there are any military or flag protocol specialists seeing this, will you let us know if this is in line with protocol .

Personally, I firmly disagree with any branch of our military marching in procession with a communist country, especially one with the history of oppression that includes human rights violations and the killing, both admitted and otherwise, of millions of its own citizens !
