The American Flag and Its Protocol. The Flag of the United States of America is a symbol of freedom and liberty to which Americans pledge their allegiance by standing at attention, facing the flag with the right hand over the heart, and reciting:
âThe colors of our flag signify the qualities of the human spirit we Americans cherish,â Reagan said. âRed for courage and readiness to sacrifice; white for pure intentions and high ideals; and blue for vigilance and justice.â. The significance behind the flagâs design is more commonly known than that of its colors. The 50 stars stand for Americaâs 50 states, while the 13 red and white stripes represent the 13 colonies. But thereâs also a lesser-known interpretation for the Stars and Stripes.
