Default Question on flag display case

They are standarized.
I have seen a display box where the flag is on one side and the
ribbons/ medals of his rank/unit/badges is on the other. Looked good
done with a dark wood. He would have had some service ribbons and
medals in his time in. Glad we had men like him; the Marines usually
take it on the chin.

Hi all:

My dad just passed away last week--since he was a USMC veteran, he got
a military funeral. As a tribute I wanted to build a flag display
case--I looked in google groups and found several different plans, but
I've got a dumb question: are the flags they put on a vet's coffin
always the same size? And what would be the final dimensions of a
display case? OK, I guess that's two dumb questions but they're
related (C;

Thanks for any help you can give me on this...
