US Civil Flag of Peace

What does an American Flag with vertical lines mean?

Two versions of the U.S. flag are created.
One with Vertical Stripes for PEACE Time, and
one with Horizontal Stripes is designed for Times of WAR.

A civil flag is a version of the national flag that is flown by civilians on nongovernmental installations or craft. The use of civil flags was more common in the past to denote buildings or ships not crewed by the military.

Through usage and custom, horizontal stripes had become adopted for use over military posts, and vertical stripes adopted for use over civilian establishments.

The Civil Flag, intended for PEACETIME usage in custom house civilian settings, had vertical stripes with blue stars on a white field.

By the Law of the Flag, this design denoted civil jurisdiction under the Constitution and Common Law as opposed to Military Jurisdiction under Admiralty/Military Law.

Our civilian flag is a way of reminding Americans, as well as our leaders, that every man and woman is sovereign and that we are all endowed by our Creator with life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

This sovereign Civil Flag is a symbol of our desire to return America to the dreams upon which she was founded!
