The flag, or ensign, that Jones is shown raising during the battle aboard the Bonhomme Richard is not correct. The flag shown was one of the early varieties established by the Continental Congress in 1777 that did not have blue stripes. It's been established that the ensign raised was the "John Paul Jones" flag which did have blue stripes, although not as the US flag is today.
