Historical Background

The U.S. Coast Guard 1-Star Blue Admiral Flag represents the rank of Rear Admiral (Lower Half), the first flag officer rank within the United States Coast Guard. Rear Admirals (Lower Half) command Coast Guard districts, mission support organizations, operational units, and strategic initiatives that protect the nation’s maritime interests. The Coast Guard traces its heritage to the Revenue Marine, established in 1790, making it one of the oldest continuous military services in the United States. The blue field with one white five-pointed star follows the long-standing U.S. military tradition for flag officer personal flags, providing immediate recognition of rank and command authority. This flag reflects the Coast Guard Core Values of Honor, Respect, and Devotion to Duty, recognizing the leadership, professionalism, and unwavering dedication demonstrated by the service’s flag officers.
