Rectangular wool bunting flag. The flag is divided into four equal quarters: the upper hoist union is red, the upper fly union is white, the lower hoist union is yellow; the lower fly union is blue. There is a black cartridge box painted in the center of the flag. On the front flap of the box is a yellow oval with the letters "U.S." Above the cartridge box are the words "FORTY ROUNDS" painted in black letters in an arc. The hoist corners have square reinforcements. There is a yellow wool fringe around all sides except the hoist. White cotton hoist with a grommet at each end. Stamped on the hoist is an inscription that reads "15TH ARMY CORPS HEADQUARTERS." Machine-stitched with flat-felled seams.
