Encyclopedia : F : FL : FLA : Flag of the United States Virgin Islands


The flag of the United States Virgin Islands was adopted in 1922. It consists of a simplified version of the Great Seal of the United States between the letters V and I (for Virgin Islands). The eagle holds an olive branch in one talon, and three arrows in the other, representing the three major islands: Saint Thomas, Saint John, and Saint Croix.
