      The flag of the U.S. state of Louisiana consists of a rectangular field of blue with the arms of Louisiana, a pelican vulning herself, in white in the center, with a ribbon beneath, also in white, containing in blue the state motto: “Union Justice Confidence”. The flag was officially adopted July 1, 1912, and is often referred to as the Pelican flag.

      As early as 1812, the brown pelican appeared on the Louisiana state seal, various militia company colors, and uniform buttons, including on a flag with a blue field and the phrase “Union, Justice and Confidence”.
