The Culpeper Minutemen Flag: The History of the Banner Flown by a Militia of Patriots

in history •  3 years ago 

This week marks the 246th anniversary of the foundation of the Culpeper Militia.

Their most important banner was The Culpeper Minutemen Flag. While many of the Revolutionary War flags flown by Patriots today have dubious origins, the Culpeper Flag is one of the few banners that we know for certain was flown by Patriots during the Revolutionary period. It also offers a succinct statement of the values of the American nation: Liberty or Death – and a stern warning to those who would threaten our liberty.
