"History
The Grand Union Flag is believed to be the first American flag. However, it was never officially accepted as the national flag of America. This flag had 13 alternating red and white stripes with British Union Jack in the canton. It is believed that the grand Union flag was inspired by the flag of the British East India Company. This flag was used by George Washington during the early years of the American Revolution. Margaret Manny is credited with creating this flag."

Today marks the 238th anniversary when on Dec. 3, 1775, Lt. John Paul Jones, having just received his first commission from the Continental Congress, hoisted the Grand Union Flag in Philadelphia Harbor aboard Alfred. It was the first time the American flag was raised over an American naval vessel and marked the beginning of a number of traditions related to the raising of the flag the Navy observes to this day."
