Historical Background

The U.S. Air Force 1-Star General Officer Flag represents the rank of Brigadier General, the entry-level general officer rank in the Air Force. The Air Force was established as a separate branch on September 18, 1947, evolving from the Army Air Forces. The white field with a single blue star follows long-standing U.S. military tradition for personal rank flags, allowing clear identification of command authority. These flags are flown to denote the presence of a general officer and embody the core values of the U.S. Air Force: Integrity First, Service Before Self, and Excellence in All We Do. They honor the leadership, strategic vision, and dedication of officers who guide America’s air and space power.
