Title
The First Navy Jack
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, exploring the history of the flag that never existed, won the Driver Award in 2002.
