The first flag of the United States of America looks much like it does today with 13 alternating red and white stripes and a blue union with white stars. Except in 1777 it had 13 stars in the blue union in the upper left corner of the flag. These 13 stars were arranged in rows of 3-2-3-2-3. If you connected the stars with diagonal and vertical lines they would look like the pattern of the British Union Jack or Kings Colors (Saint Andrews' Cross and Saint George's Cross).
