I've never seen or heard of it being done, and I've been to a lot of funerals.

Drac,
If it were me, I'd use my own flag, and keep your grandfather's sealed up in its own box, one reason being that his flag is older than yours and possibly more fragile. It would really be a fine display to have both of them beside each other in their boxes with each of your medals and decorations in matching shadow boxes.
