The newest Patriot Wood flag is a wooden version of the Christian flag. Designed in the early twentieth century, the Christian flag represents all of Christianity—it’s a flag heavy with symbolism and rich in tradition, and a great example of flags carrying stories. Let’s look at some of the things that make the Christian flag special.
While the Jolly Roger flag is romanticized in modern times, its original meaning may shiver your timbers—let’s look at why pirate flags have a black background, which pirate flew the classic skull-and-crossbones flag, and more!
Tomorrow much of the world will be watching Germany and Argentina fight it out for the privilege to lift the World Cup. There’s plenty of history between these two countries and their respective national football teams as this will be the third time they will have faced each other in a World Cup final. (The previous two times were in 1986 and 1990.) In ’86, Argentina won a barnburner of a game 3:2 whereas in ’90, the only goal scored was on a penalty kick which gave Germany the win. One of the players on the 1990 German squad was Jürgen Klinsmann, who is currently the US national team’s head coach.
To honor Sunday’s final, Patriot Wood built two wooden national flags: the German wood flag and the Argentine wood flag.
After its creation in the 1950s, the Diver Down flag quickly became the most common flag used by divers in the United States. However, it’s not part of the international code of signal flags, and many boats end up flying two flags when they have divers in the water—both the red and white Diver Down, and the traditional Alpha flag.
The core purpose of these flags is to let boats know that there is a diver in the water. When flown, both boats and divers have responsibilities: passing boats must not come within a certain distance of the Diver Down flag, and divers must remain close to it.
I’ve been a Seattle Seahawks fan for a very long time. Let me rephrase that: I’ve been a Seattle Seahawks fan for an extremely lengthy and excruciating time. Jim Zorn, Steve Largent, the Kingdome, 1992’s two-win season, Bill Leavy—all indelibly burned into any Seahawks fan’s memory (whether we like it or not). We’ve been laughed at, made fun of, and looked down upon for decades.
But now all of that doom and gloom is behind us.
