The First Navy Jack
Raven: A Journal of Vexillology 11:1-60 (2004)
Abstract
While the rattlesnake-and-stripes flag that currently flies on the bow of every U.S. warship has a long tradition in American flag use, its design was a 19th-century mistake based on an erroneous 1776 engraving. This paper explores the history of the flag that never existed.My notes
