Description

Pierce Manufacturing is an Appleton, Wisconsin-based manufacturer of custom fire and rescue apparatus and a wholly owned subsidiary of Oshkosh Corporation. Pierce was acquired by Oshkosh in 1996 and is currently the largest fire apparatus company in the world. The company was founded in 1913 by Humphrey Pierce and his son Dudley as the "Pierce Auto Body Works Inc.", and concentrated on building custom truck bodies for the Ford Model T. From the 1960s to the early 1980s, Pierce was primarily known for building custom bodies on commercial and other manufacturer's custom chassis, and was considered an original equipment manufacturer (OEM).

There appear to be two versions of this flag - the one with the logo in chrome or grayscale as Esteban pointed out, and one with the logo in color as seen online at http://www.siddons-martin.com/custom/page/pierce.
