Massachusetts State Flags
State Flags
Adopted in 1908, revised 1971. The Flag of the Commonwealth is white, bearing on both sides a representation of the coat of arms like the state seal (except that the five-pointed star is white instead of silver). It was approved for the Commonwealth in its final form on July 3, 1971; before that, the obverse side depicted a green pine tree. The coat of arms is taken from the Great Seal, and was initially described in 1885. A white flag with a gold color Indian and a five pointed silver star on a blue shield. Above the shield is the state motto, "Ense petit placidam sub libertate quietem" ("By the sword we seek peace, but peace only under liberty") appears in gold on a blue ribbon beneath the blue shield. The blue and gold state military crest appears above the blue shield.

Additional Information | N/A The crest is a wreath of blue and gold, on which in gold is a right arm, bent at the elbow, clothed and ruffled, with the hand grasping a broadsword and is prescribed in the Army Institute of Heraldry. (ref; sec.state.ma.us, State Symbols) Massachusetts had an official naval ensign during the Revolutionary War in 1776, a white pine tree flag. See, "An Appeal To Heaven". A green pine tree flag continues as an official state naval flag, minus the Appeal to Heaven motto. Massachusetts and Maine are the only states with official naval ensigns. | |||||||||
