U.S. Army Military Flag 4 ft. x 6 ft. Nylon SolarGuard®

Nyl-Glo - Model 439021

The flag for the United States Army was created in 1956. It has a white background with emblems in blue and red -- national colors. The design was based on the Army seal adopted in 1779 by the Continental Congress. It includes a cuirass (breast plate) that represents the Army defending the nation. There is also a liberty cap of the type used in the Roman Empire and a pike carried by certain military officers. Cannon, cannonballs, a mortar, powder flask, and a rattlesnake (such as appeared on some Revolutionary War flags) complete the design. The date at the bottom (1776) indicates the year the United States Army was officially established. This flag is 100% Made in USA to Official Specifications. The flag is expertly printed and sewn using 200 denier nylon fabric with our exclusive SolarGuard™ dyes. Proven to last the longest and be the brightest. Durable fabric flies in the lightest breeze and blocks damaging UV rays. Finished with sturdy canvas heading and strong brass grommets.
