Because today May 17’th is US Virgin Islands Flag Day! The flag is a simplified version of the coat of arms of the United States between the letters V and I (for 'Virgin Islands'). The yellow-colored eagle holds a sprig of laurel in one talon, and three arrows, which represents the three main islands - St.Croix, St.Thomas, & St.John in the other. The blue color in the shield on the eagle's breast is the same color as that of the flag and shield of the United States. The flag further represents the unique history, strength and resilience as a people! 📸 by @sohbree @musicspeaksent wearing our #usviflag #5panel hat #vimassive #usvirginislands #stcroix #stthomas #stjohn #waterisland #usvi #virginislands #usvirginislands #usvinice #islandlife #caribbeanclothing (at St. Thomas USVI) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAS4HBHDTG8/?igshid=k3svjqkgvi3m
