Title
Flags of the State Navies in the Revolutionary War: A Critical Overview
Abstract
Ten states created their own navies, separate and distinct from the Continental Navy organized by Congress, to fight the British. Categorized into “blue water,” “brown water,” and “minor” navies, they played an important role in the Revolutionary War and the development of the nation’s early flags.
