Historical Background

The U.S. Marine Corps 1-Star General Officer Flag represents the rank of Brigadier General, the first general officer rank within the United States Marine Corps. Brigadier Generals serve in key leadership positions, commanding brigades and supporting senior operational and strategic missions across the Corps. Since its founding in 1775, the Marine Corps has built a legacy of honor, courage, and battlefield excellence. The red field with a single white five-pointed star follows the long-standing U.S. military tradition for General Officer personal flags, providing immediate recognition of rank and command authority. This ceremonial flag reflects the Marine Corps Core Values of Honor, Courage, and Commitment, recognizing the leadership and dedication of officers entrusted with leading Marines in service to the nation.

Is this flag for indoor or outdoor use?

Indoor and ceremonial. The lined pole hem slides over an indoor or parade pole and the rayon fringe is a ceremonial finish; it is not made to fly outdoors, where weather wears the fringe quickly.

What other finishes is the U.S. Marine Corps 1 Star General Officer flag made in?

This flag is also made with grommets and pole hem. The design is the same; the finish changes how it mounts and where it is displayed.

Is this flag made in the USA?

How is this flag displayed with the American flag?

The American flag takes the position of honor.
