ITS. the new Nation refused to use
the Union Jack in It's flag, and on
June IA, 1777, Congress passed the
resolution previously quoted. The
first actual unfurling of the stars
and stripes occurred on a warship
when John Paul Jones took command
of the Ranger in June of that year.
The flag was christened in action at
the battle of Brandywine, in Septem-
Der of the same year. 1777
Following much discussion. it was
finally authoritatively laid down that
there would be seven red and six white
stripes in the flag.
One often hears that the Stars and
Stripes of the American National flag,
as well as the eagle, were an offspring
of the arms and crest of the Wash
ington family. This, however, does
not jibe with the facts. The WASH
ington crest was raven, while the
arms were white shield having two
horizontal red bars; above them a row
of three "nolets." Perhaps by exer-
cising a high degree of imagination
this might be supposed to have given
birth to the idea that each State in
the Union should bs represented In
the national flAg by q star and q
stripe.
