American Flag w/Green Stripes Instead of Red. What flag was this at Yankee Stadium prayer service?

American Flag w/Green Stripes Instead of Red. I saw this flag at the prayer service at Yankee Stadium last Sunday ... and am wondering if anyone can tell me what that flag is? It looks very much like Old Glory except the red stripes are replaced with green stipes. I'd appreciate any info on that flag.

This photo is from Time magazine. In the background you see another flag that is green/white stripes. It is the flag of one of the larger Pakistani Islamic groups.

Kit.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! Mystery solved.

Now I'm embarassed to have not known that since my Father-in-law was a NYPD Detective and my Brother-in-law is one now. In fact he has been working at Ground Zero on a regular rotation. I'm glad to know about the flag now.

your’re welcome. i do not envy your brother-in-law’s job. we can
only wonder what it must be like, from out here in the hinterlands of utah.
i've assisted in recoveries and investigations, but this must be
absolutely heart rending.

best wishes to you and your family. stay well. gr
