According to Forster family lore, the red silk flag was captured from the British at the Battle of Lexington on April 19th. The cross of St. George was in the canton (the upper left quarter). That symbol of Britain was cut out and replaced with a square of red silk. Thirteen buff-colored bars representing the original colonies were then stitched onto the canton, six on one side and seven on the other.

Samuel Forster returned to Manchester where the company would remain, guarding the coastal towns from British naval attacks. The Forster Flag, now the company’s colors, benefited greatly from this assignment. Other regimental colors suffered from constant hoisting and lowering and battlefield damage. The few military colors that did survive, by long tradition were carefully preserved and handed down as precious mementos of regimental history.

Most of the people fighting in the rebellion were the jerks he sent over, men spared the rope, sons of men that fled after culloden, the refuse of British society.
Also i think they didn't like the king.

Americans considered themselves Englishmen who were denied their traditional rights as Englishmen. Few were truly American nationalists.

Why did we add more stars. The circle was aesthetic as fuck. The modern American flag looks autistic.

agreed, but imo i don't like tiny stars being shoved in the top left corner. id prefer the stars in the middle
