The Merchant Marine Flag is used by merchant marines, a military branch that is often overlooked. The merchant marines were founded before the United States Navy or the United States Coastguard. During peacetime, merchant marines transport goods and people. During times of war, the merchant marines assist the United States Navy. The flag features the United States Merchant Marine emblem along with the year of its founding, 1775.
Our United States Merchant Marine flags are designed with both beauty and durability in mind. Lightweight nylon is used to give the best visual effect. All flags finished with a heavy canvas heading and brass grommets for easy installation. 100% Made in the USA.
