KATIPUNAN ERA
FLAG OF GENERAL GREGORIO DEL PILAR 1897
The flag of General Gregorio del Pilar had two stripes: black and red with a blue triangle.
The triangle, symbolize comradeship with the flag of Cuba and the cuban revolutionaries, but also meaning brotherhood with the cuban masons who, like in the Philippines have had a great weight on the cuban revolution against the Kingdom of Spain.
FLAG (SUPPOSED ) OF GENERAL PIO DEL PILAR
According to a written source by Emmanuel Baja the flag of General Gregorio del Pilar had a white star like the cuban flag.
We don't have any kind of true evidence about the existence of this flag.
One of the original flags of General Gregorio del Pilar at present is kept inside the private Museum dedicated to General Aguinaldo in Baguio City.

Caption on the following page of the book:
In a charge by Funston's soldiers, "a very fine silken flag" of the Filipinos "became the centre of a short and sharp struggle in which firearms could not be used. In fact, it resembled as much as anything some of the confursed scrambles that are seen on the foot-ball field," said Funston. "Wehn we finally got the flag it had been riddled by bullets and was drenched in blood."
