What is the ball on the top of a flagpole called in military terms?
just the right answerThe ball is called a "truck". There is NOTHING in the ball. Anyone who thinks there is a bullet, a grain of wheat, a match, etc in that ball is having their leg pulled (see urban legends). The ball is to keep the flag from getting suck on top of the pole when the wind blows. Think about it. Slight Correction:Actually, it's properly called a "finial." A "truck" is the bolt that holds the finial to the pole, but has become commonly used to refer to the finial, especially in military communities.As far of the myths of what they contain, I'm going to get a flagpole, and fill the finial with a razor, a match and a bullet. It's a great legend, though absurd.From Experience:I have the truck and ball that came off the top of a 68 foot high flagpole from a WWII military base. I was involved with removing the pole, so I know the ball is real.It is copper and approximately 7.5 inch in diameter. And there are at least two things in the ball. Something light and something heavier. I would guess it to be a razor blade and a bullet.The right ANSWER is:The ball is usually called a finial. A truck is the stationary or revolving part that has a pulley that the halyard (rope) goes through. The finial ball or eagle is screwed into the top of the truck assembly. The finial is actually any thing mounted to the top of the truck such as a ball, eagle, cross or star or any other symbol. In the U.S. Army, an eagle atop a flagpole truck is called a sparrow.
