Item Details
Description
GEN. ROBERT C. RICHARDSON JR.'S AMERICAN FLAG AND U.S. ARMY PACIFIC FLAG
Important group of two flags from the wartime service of Gen. Richardson, includes a 33" x 52" wool banner, navy blue field with insignia of the Unites States Army Pacific at center bearing an embroidered design which is affixed to both sides of the banner, with the banner looped at top for suspension from a horizontal bar. Also present is Richardson's silk American flag, 40" x 50" with yellow fringe on three sides, the hoist likewise configured for suspension from a horizontal support. Both flags were displayed in Richardson's Hawaii headquarters during the war, and very likely travelled with him on his many trips to the front. The flags remain in the same box in which Richardson stored them in 1950, his typed label attached and with a copy of a second descriptive label typed by him mentioning the contents and dated 1950.
