This inspiring slogan comes from the last words of Captain James Lawrence, who spoke them as he lay dying on his ship in battle three months before. Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry’s flagship, the USS Lawrence, bore the Captain’s name and waved the flag with his words. Though the Lawrence was claimed during the Battle of Lake Erie, Commodore Perry brought this banner with him as he left the sinking ship, and raised it again on the USS Niagara. Under it, and against all odds, he defeated the entire British squadron, which had him outgunned. Our Nylon Historic Commodore Perry Flag is made proudly in the USA. Our Historic Commodore Perry Flag has brilliant color, is authentic in design and is made in the USA with true craftsmanship. Representing an important part of U.S. History, you can be proud to display this revered standard.
