[edit] Summary

Description	Grand Union Flag.svg English: Version 3.0 of the Grand Union flag (aka Continental Colors). This version rewritten from scratch using a text-editor; with colors from Image:Flag of the United States.svg. Previous text: image was created using an image of the pre-1801 Union flag and the Sodipodi SVG of the Betsy Ross flag by Daniel McRae. The colors are based on information from here. I hope St. George's cross looks straight now.
