Commodore Perry Don't Give Up The Ship Flag

Commodore Perry flag is 100% durable SolarMax Nylon, designed to withstand the damaging effects of wind and sun.  Three x five feet, it has brilliant colors, finished with canvas heading and solid brass grommets.  Made in America by Annin Flagmakers, the nation's oldest and largest flag manufacturer.  Annin has produced flags since 1847.

The inspiring words "Don't Give Up The Ship" were spoken by Captain James Lawrence as he lay dying on his ship in battle with the British during the Revolutionary War.  Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry later adopted the slogan for his own ship, the USS Lawrence.  Later, under a different ship, Commodore Perry defeated the entire British squadron.
