The City of Bentonville, Arkansas, USA, has a new flag. It can be seen in a PDF Document here: http://www.bentonvillear.com/docs/admin/newsletters/summer_2008.pdf.

The Bentonville City Flag appears to be largely based upon the municipal logo, which appears at the head of the municipal web site. There are two entirely different cities in Arkansas with very similar names, Bentonville and Benton. Both cities however are named after Thomas Hart Benton, a US Senator from Missouri during the second third of the 19th Century who was noted for his particularly irascible temper and his proclivity to fighting duels.

A white flag with a narrow dark red-white-blue perimeter, and the rectangular city logo centered. The logo is a large white B, filled in blue, surrounded in dark red, with a white star toward the hoist (where the two loops of the 'B' come together). Above is a blue bar bearing THE CITY OF in white, and below another blue bar bearing BENTONVILLE. The date of establishment (1837) is written on the bottom of the white field.
