Purity.

Although meanings to the colors in the American flag were not specifically designated, they were the same as for the Seal of the United States. The seal was authorized by the Continental Congress in 1776, however, the authorized committee did not make it a reality until 1782. Because the seal was established before the American flag, it is believed that the colors in the Seal and their meanings transferred to the flag.

RedThe color red in the American seal and transferred to the American flag stands for valor and hardiness. WhiteThe color white in the American seal and transferred to the American flag stands for purity BlueThe color blue in the American seal and transferred to the American flag is the color of the Chief and stands for perseverance, justice and vigilance
