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 3×4 FT, 43×61.5 IN.

Historical Background

The U.S. Coast Guard 3-Star Blue Admiral Flag represents the rank of Vice Admiral, one of the highest flag officer ranks within the United States Coast Guard. Vice Admirals serve in senior executive leadership positions, oversee major operational commands, and direct Coast Guard missions that protect the nation’s maritime interests while supporting homeland security. Originating from the Revenue Marine established in 1790, the Coast Guard remains one of America’s oldest continuous maritime services. The blue field with three white five-pointed stars 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 outstanding leadership, integrity, and dedication demonstrated by the service’s senior admirals.

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. Coast Guard 3 Star Blue Admiral 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.
