Description
Source: Barraclough and Crampton 1981.

Blue flag with three white chakras, one and two. The change from two chakras to three for a Vice-Admiral was made in 1979, so this is how old this flag is, presumably. Previously the three-chakras flag was used for full admirals. The Singha Beer source shows all chakras in the naval ranks flags slightly different (with golden parts etc.) but Flaggenbuch shows them exactly as they are used today, so maybe the Singha beer site is not entirely correct in that point.
