Note that, officially, the colors in the flag do NOT have a specific meaning. Any meaning that people state is one they have given it, and not an "official" meaning.
The stripes (collectively, both red and white) stand for the original 13 colonies that revolted from Great Britain. They are a collective meaning - that is, no specific stripe stands for any specific colony.
