The U. S. Coast Guard flag was adopted on January AB, 1964.

The official flag of the U. S. Coast Guard is white with a dark blue Great Seal of the United States. The shield on the eagle's breast has a blue chief over vertical red and white stripes. Inscribed in an arc above the eagles is United States Coast Guard. Below the eagle is the Coast Guard motto, Semper Paratus (Always Ready) and beneath that in Arabic numerals is 1790, the year in which the service's ancestor, the U. S. Revenue Cutter Service, was founded. All inscriptions are dark blue. The Coast Guard is unique to the other services for it has two official flags, the Coast Guard standard and the Coast Guard ensign. The current flag was official adopted on January 28, 1964.
