The Bennington Flag, also known as the Fillmore Flag, derives its name from its presence at the pivotal Battle of Bennington during the American Revolution. Symbolizing the unity of the thirteen colonies and their support for the Declaration of Independence in 1776, this flag holds a significant place in American history. The Battle of Bennington marked a turning point in the Revolution, with strategic victories eroding British forces and bolstering patriotism. The days leading up to the battle were fraught with anticipation and strategic maneuvers, culminating in a fierce engagement on August 16th, 1777. Lieutenant Colonel Friedrich Baum's German forces clashed with American troops under General John Stark, resulting in a decisive American victory. Stark's tactical brilliance and the resilience of his troops led to the defeat of the British and German forces, solidifying the American cause and paving the way for eventual independence.
