Description of the flag

The NSF apparently adopted a new flag in approximately 2015, based on its current logo.
Flag is the NSF logo on white, with "National Science Foundation" in blue along the bottom of the flag.

The flag of the U.S. National Security Agency features the NSA seal on a blue field. The seal is rather self-explanatory, featuring the American eagle with a "shield in American colors" on its chest, and holding a silver key in its talons. The words "NATIONAL SECURITY AGENCY" arch around the top of the seal, with the words "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" across the bottom.
