Frequently Ask Questions About the Flag of West Virginia

What do the symbols on the West Virginia state flag represent?

The West Virginia state flag features a white field with a blue border and the state's coat of arms in the center. The coat of arms consists of two men in historical dress representing agriculture and mining, which are key industries in the state. The red ribbon at the bottom reads "State of West Virginia," while a wreath of rhododendron, the state flower, surrounds the coat of arms. The flag's colors of blue and gold represent loyalty, justice, and the richness of the state's resources.

When was the West Virginia state flag adopted?

The West Virginia state flag was officially adopted on March 7, 1929. The flag was the result of a design contest held by the Daughters of the American Revolution in 1904, but it wasn't until over two decades later that the winning design was formally adopted as the official state flag. The flag underwent minor modifications in 1963 to standardize the color shades used in the design. It has remained the state flag ever since, proudly representing the history and identity of West Virginia.

Can the West Virginia state flag be flown upside down as a distress signal?

While flying a flag upside down is a universally recognized distress signal, it is generally not appropriate to do so with a state flag, including the West Virginia state flag. The U.S. Flag Code specifies that the national flag, and by extension state flags, should not be flown upside down except in cases of extreme distress when lives are in danger. In such situations, it is best to use an alternative distress signal and reserve the proper display of the state flag for non-emergency situations that show respect for the state and its symbols.
