This is an American made flag of our toughest, most durable nylon fabric. It has solid brass grommets. You won’t find nylon flags with higher tensile and tear strength, yet they fly very well in the wind. This flag has excellent strength retention under UV exposure, and high resistance to UV fading. The colors are deeper, brighter and last over time, due to the aniline dyeing process.
There is a one inch double edge fold with four rows of stitching on the fly edge. It has 1 1/2 inch reinforced stitching vertically at the fly corners, and 3 1/2 inch reinforced hem stitching (horizontal) at top of bottom of the fly.
The Russian Czar sent two expeditions out into the Pacific in 1728 and 1741, under the command of Danish captain Vitus Bering and Russian Alexei Chorikov. On the second voyage Alaska was found. Russia establish a thriving fur trade in the new world, and in the 1770s temporary Russian temporary settlements were set up in the Aleutian Islands west of Alaska. The first permanent Russian settlement in Alaska was established on Kodiak Island in 1784. Fifteen years later the Czar granted sole rights for trade in America to the Russian American Company. The company was also given control of all Russian settlements in Alaska and down into California, and even had a post in Hawaii. The Russian American Company continued its trade until the 1860’s. The government of Russia sold Alaska to the United States in 1867.

1st Navy Jack Flag / Don’t Tread On Me Red Flag
Double Nylon Embroidered
Choose Your Size: 2×3 or 3 x 5 ft.
This flag is specified by the U.S. Navy as the jack for its oldest warship in regular commission, a tradition which keeps an historic American flag in regular use.The first navy jack shows a rattlesnake superimposed across 13 horizontal alternating red and white stripes with the motto “DONT TREAD ON ME”. It was first employed by Commodore Esek Hopkins in the fall of 1775 as he readied the continental navy in the Delaware River. His signal for the whole fleet to engage the enemy was the striped jack and ensign flown at their proper places. The temporary substitution of this jack represents a historic reminder of the nation’s and navy’s origin, and will to preserve and triumph. This is the Naval rendition of the American Colonial Flag in use at the beginning of the American Revolutionary War.
This is one of the first flags to show 13 stripes (one for each American colony) along with the poisonous Sea Snake. It features the sea snake above the warning, “DONT TREAD ON ME”. The lack of an apostrophe in “DONT” is based on the only rendition we have of the flag during the revolution, a print made by Thomas Hart in August, 1776. That print clearly shows the word with no apostrophe. The rattle snake had become a traditional symbol of the American Colonies and the Colonial Navy adopted the sea going version of this. The most obvious reason for the snake to be the symbol of the American Colonies was that the rattlesnake was only found in the American Colonies and nowhere else in the world. The origin of the slogan (Don’t Tread On Me) pertains to the snakes deadly strike and the idea that it is best left alone. In 2002 the Secretary of the Navy directed that all U.S. Navy ships raise the historic Navy Jack and continue to do so throughout the global War on Terrorism.
