Puerto Ricans fought on both sides during the Spanish American War and there are those that espoused the National Cause that have been fighting the current government for more then a hundred years. A more important group are those who fight in defense of freedom as members of the US Armed Forces. Puerto Rican's have served as draftees and volunteers in every conflict since WWI. Many have given their lives in the defense of Freedom and their numbers include Medal of Honor winners, Flag officers and the thousands who simply did their jobs.
The flag of Puerto Rico is a rectangle with an equilateral triangle placed with one side along the left edge of the rectangle. The triangle is blue with a single white star in the middle. The part of the rectangle not "covered by the triangle has a red stripe along the top and bottom and in the middle. Between the red stripes are two white stripes. All stripes are of equal thickness.
Cuba gave them a reverse flag for helping them in the Spanish-American war. P.s Puerto Rico to Spain is the same as America to England
No. The Cuban flag existed before the Flag of Puerto Rico was adopted. Puerto Rico's flag is a reverse image of the Cuban flag with red where the Cuban flag is blue and blue where the Cuban flag is red. All white elements are the same in both flags.
Just like the American flag, the Cuban flag is red white and blue. It is similar in design to the Puerto Rican flag, but the color schemes are opposite.

Puerto Rican is the proper adjective for Puerto Rico.
Yes on his right hand
The origins of the current flag of Puerto Rico, adopted by the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico in 1952, can be traced to 1868, when the original Puerto Rican flag, "The Revolutionary Flag of Lares", was conceived by Dr. Ramon Emeterio Betances and embroidered by Mariana "Brazos de Oro" Bracetti. This flag was used in the short lived Puerto Rican revolt against Spanish rule in the island, known as "El Grito de Lares". Juan de Mata Terreforte, an exiled veteran of "El Grito de Lares" and Vice-President of Puerto Rican Revolutionary Committee, in New York City, adopted the Flag of Lares as the flag of Puerto Rico until 1892, when the current design, modeled after the Cuban flag, was unveiled and adopted by the committee. The new flag consisted of five equal horizontal bands of red (top and bottom) alternating with white; a blue isosceles triangle based on the hoist side bears a large, white, five-pointed star in the center. The use and display of the Puerto Rican flag was outlawed and the only flags permitted to be flown in Puerto Rico were the Spanish flag (1492 to 1898) and the flag of the United States (1898 to 1952). In 1952, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico adopted the same flag design, which was unveiled in 1892 by the Puerto Rican Revolutionary Committee, as its official standard without specifying the tones of colors to be used. The color of the triangle that was used by the administration of Luis Muñoz Marín was the dark blue that is used in the flag of the United States, instead of the original light blue, thus creating a political controversy which has lasted throughout the years. In 1995, the government of Puerto Rico, issued a regulation in regard to the use of the Puerto Rican flag titled: "Reglamento sobre el Uso en Puerto Rico de la Bandera del Estado Libre Asociado de Puerto Rico" in which the government specifies the colors to be used but, does not specify any official color tones or shades. Therefore, it is not uncommon to see the Flag of Puerto Rico with different shades of blue displayed in the island.
Blood from the brave warriors
It is almost a reverse image of the Cuban flag with the white unchanged.
