Guilford Courthouse
This flag is an example of the lack of
uniformity in American flags during the Revolutionary period as
each group chose what flag to be used as it's standard. This flag
has the unique elements of an elongated canton and blue stripes.
It was raised over the Guilford Courthouse, North Carolina on
March 15, 1781 under the leadership of General Greene whose
militiamen halted the British advance through the Carolinas and
turned them back to the seaport towns. This was one of the
bloodiest battles of the long war with the British losing over a
quarter of their troops. .
