Symbolism[]
The navy blue color and the waves represent the Ohio River. The red St. George's Cross is a connection to the coat of arms of colonial Virginia, representing the grant of the site of Clarksville to George Rogers Clark by Virginia for his services in the Revolutionary War. The gold sword was another gift to George Rogers Clark for his military service.
