A rank flag exists for the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO),
dependent to the U.S. Department of Commerce.
The flag in question is a
horizontal flag with the seal (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Patent_and_Trademark_Office#/media/File:US-PatentTrademarkOffice-Seal.svg)
in white background with (what seems to be) four red stars, each in a respective
corner as seen here:

Here's a variant with the golden eagle (http://www.bisnow.com/archives/legal/0209/legal_images/022309d.jpg,

instead of brown.
Here's another picture (fourth flag from left to right)

It seems that it is the flag of the Director of USPTO. "The Under Secretary
(of Commerce for Intellectual Property), or USC(IP) is dual-hatted as the
Director of the United States Patent and Trademark Office within the Commerce
Department" (sources:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Under_Secretary_of_Commerce_for_Intellectual_Property).
