The General Burnside Flag is associated with Ambrose Burnside, a prominent Union commander during the American Civil War. The design features a shield with crossed anchors within a circular star pattern, symbolizing Burnside’s military authority and his earlier service and interest in naval affairs.
This flag was used to mark headquarters and command presence in the field, particularly during Burnside’s tenure commanding Union forces, including the Army of the Potomac and later the Army of the Ohio. It remains a distinctive Civil War–era general’s flag and a notable example of period military symbolism.
