Product Description
The U.S. Coast Guard 1 Star White Admiral – Pole Hem Fringe Flag is dye-printed on 200 denier nylon in the USA, so every line of the Coast Guard’s official design reproduces exactly, and it is lock stitched on the seams and header.
The pole hem slides over an indoor or parade pole, and the gold rayon fringe is the traditional ceremonial finish. For an outdoor flagpole, see the grommets version. Choose from 3×5 FT.
Historical Background
The U.S. Coast Guard 1-Star White Admiral Flag represents the rank of Rear Admiral (Lower Half), the first flag officer rank within the Coast Guard. Officers holding this rank serve in important leadership positions overseeing operations, personnel, and strategic missions.
The United States Coast Guard was established in 1915 through the merger of the U.S. Revenue Cutter Service and the U.S. Life-Saving Service, continuing a long maritime tradition of protecting American waters. Coast Guard admiral flags follow established military traditions used to identify command authority and leadership.
The white field and blue star design reflect the Coast Guard’s maritime heritage, while the service emblem represents the mission of safeguarding the nation’s waterways and supporting national security.
