Washington Cruisers
This flag was used by George Washington on his squadron of six
schooners which he outfitted at his own expense in the fall of 1775.
This flag was a variation of the New England Pine Tree flag. It was
later modified and adopted by the Massachusetts Navy. The Sons of
Liberty would rally under a large tree, in Boston Massachusetts, which
came to be known as "The Liberty Tree". This tree became a symbol
of American independence. Knowing they were up against a great military
power they believed they were sustained by still a greater power,
thus their "APPEAL TO HEAVEN".
