The Bennington flag, often referred to as the 76 Flag, first flew over the military stores depot in Bennington, Vermont on
August 16, 1777 when the American militia defeated an attacking British force at the Battle of Bennington. The Bennington
Flag is one of the most popular versions of the American Flag. The large '76' makes it easily identifiable as a banner
from the American Revolution and that is one reason why it remains a striking symbol of the American Spirit – The Spirit
of 76.
Like other flags of the era, the Bennington flag features 13 stars and 13 stripes, symbolic of the original 13 American
colonies. However, unlike many Revolutionary War flags, the arrangement of the 13 stripes starts and ends with white
instead of the usual red. It is also one of the few flags with 7-pointed stars.
