Commander's Pennant (Thailand) (original) (raw)

The Commander's Flag
The flag was a dark blue, triangular pennant, the ration of the base to the length being 2 by 5. In the middle stands a yellow anchor.

The flag first made its appearance in B.E. 2479 [_1936 AD_] following a special Royal Decree, known as Article 9, concerning flags. In B.E.2483 [1940 AD_], however, Article 9 was abolished ["and"?_] the amended Royal Decree came into force in B.E.2483 [_1940 AD_]. The design on the flag, however, is the same as the one used today.
