French Flags of the U.S. Revolutionary War

Use of Regimental Colors

France sent some dozen regiments to fight with the Americans against the British. At the time of the Revolutionary War, French troops did not as yet carry a national or royal colour; nationality was designated by a white "cravat" tied to the pike head.

French infantry regiments at the time carried one colonel's flag -- all white, and 14 "drapeaux d'ordonnance". I think all 14 were identical within the regiment, and most regiments featured the white cross.
