Here’s what I found:

Thanks. That’s a good find. I think it had a blue line on it, so it’s probably the Thin Blue Line Flag mentioned on the Quora site. I seem to remember that a police officer died in that city within the past month or so (not my hometown), so it’s probably off-duty LE. They just look so young, kind of like our service personnel.

I saw this at the Whitney Museum painted by William N. Copley

Description of the work
Untitled (Think/flag) was William N. Copley’s contribution to a portfolio released by Artists and Writers, Protest, Inc. to protest the War in Vietnam in 1967. The 16 artists who contributed to the portfolio, including Ad Reinhardt, Louise Nevelson, and Leon Golub, employed a range of aesthetic strategies, from graphic representations of anguished bodies to abstractions that critiqued the conflict in symbolic rather than literal ways. See more from the portfolio on view in An Incomplete History of Protest.

Anyhow it got me thinking
