Flag of Wisconsin

Flag of Wisconsin

The state flag of Wisconsin is a blue flag charged with the state coat of arms. Officially designed in 1863 (because regiments from Wisconsin wanted a flag for battlefield use), the flag was modified to add "Wisconsin" and "1848" in 1981. The year 1848 is when Wisconsin was admitted into the United States as a state. [ [http://www.dnr.state.wi.us/org/caer/ce/eek/nature/state/flag.htm EEK! - Wisconsin's State Flag ] ]
