The United States Army flag features much more intricate imagery than other branches of the armed forces. Symbols include the original War Office seal in ultramarine blue on a white background. Above the seal the Army motto, This We’ll Defend, is written on a scroll and protected by a snake. In the center of the emblem is a Roman cuirass, a U.S. Army symbol of strength and its mission to protect America. A cannon and mortar flank the cuirass to represent the force of the Army, and a Phrygian cap atop an unsheathed sword stands for liberty.
Below the emblem is a red scroll with the words United States Army written in white. At the bottom of the flag, in blue, is 1775 – the year in which our Army was officially established.
Interestingly, despite being the oldest branch of the military, official U.S. Army flag history is a bit of a mystery. The Army was the last branch to have a singular, official flag, which was only introduced in 1956. It has remained unchanged since.

They are ideal for rainy areas because of its quick-drying ability, yet are lightweight and close weave enable it to fly in the slightest breeze, giving the fullest visual effect.
