A new flag has been introduced recently for the US Customs and Border Protection Office of Trade, seen here at the CBP Valor Memorial:
"The CBP Office of Trade has released their official flag! The design
elements are a symbolic integration of CBP's crucial role within Department of
Homeland Security and its legacy customs history. The red and white vertical
stripes at the base of the flag signify the historic U.S. Customs ensign which
dates back to 1799 and represents the origins of CBP's distinguished and
critical revenue collection and trade enforcement mission. The six stars
represent the "6" in World Trade Center, honoring the legacy customs office that
was destroyed on September 11, 2001. The globe symbolizes the international
scope of CBP's modern trade operations and the eagle represents OT's role within
the Department of Homeland Security enterprise."
