Can someone identify this variation of the US flag for me? I've got it saved as "civil liberty flag", but when I google that, another somewhat different version of it comes up. I'd love to find out what this one is called.

An executive order issued by President William Howard Taft on October 29, 1912, fixed the overall width and length of the U.S. flag, known technically as the hoist and fly, respectively, in a ratio of 1: 1.9. The thirteen stripes were fixed at equal width. The hoist of the blue field containing
the stars was fixed at seven-thirteenths of the overall hoist, that is, as extending from the top of the flag to the bottom of the seventh stripe. The
fly of the blue field was fixed at a tiny fraction over three-fourths the overall hoist. The diameter of each star was established as a minute
fraction under one-sixteenth of the overall hoist. http://www.wealth4freedom.com/truth/flag.htm

The Civil Flag is sort of an inverse design of the Peace Flag. Here is a blueprint of the current Civil Flag specifications.
