A close-up of the flag - not all stars are visible. http://www.flickr.com/photos/euthman/ / CC BY-SA 2.0	Another close-up - likewise, the entire circle is not visible. http://www.flickr.com/photos/euthman/ / CC BY-SA 2.0	Grand Union Flag - The Union Jack’s inclusion in this flag, was intended to demonstrate the colonists’ desire to remain within the British Empire. (The war had started in April 1775, over a year prior to the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776.) They had hoped that the British would redress their grievances, and that independence would not be necessary. http://www.flickr.com/photos/euthman/ / CC BY-SA 2.0
