	03:35, 1 April 2022	1,024 × 683 (11 KB)	CommandoEchino	Changed the color of the flag back to the blue and red of the American flag, in compliance with the de-facto design of it. Please see the Discussion tab for my reasoning. Resized the fluer-de-lis and rings to more closely match the diagram in the County Code.
