Don't Tread On Me
First Navy Jack
First Navy Jack
The First Navy Jack of the United States of America with some rustic flare.
This flag is also the current Navy Jack flown aboard US Naval ships. It features 13 red and white stripes, a rattlesnake (specifically, the Timber Rattlesnake) is especially significant and symbolic to the American Revolution. The rattle has thirteen layers, signifying the original Thirteen Colonies. And, the snake does not strike until provoked, a quality echoed by the phrase "Don't tread on me."
