27Division18 Posted July 6, 2021 Share #1 Posted July 6, 2021 Is this a US Navy signal flag from WW2, or something like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhcoleterracina Posted July 6, 2021 Share #2 Posted July 6, 2021 To me, since it has the ring top and buckle on a 24 inch lead, it matches how Navy flags were made in WW2 and probably after. I don't have books handy to say what this flag means though. Any markings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Jerry Posted July 6, 2021 Share #3 Posted July 6, 2021 I think that one is for "H" and actually might be earlier than WW2. (could also be civilian/commercial shipping use) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
27Division18 Posted July 7, 2021 Author Share #4 Posted July 7, 2021 No markings that I can see. Thanks for your insights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Budy Posted September 23, 2021 Share #5 Posted September 23, 2021 It kind of looks like the signal flag H (hotel). However, I believe the red and white are the same size for the hotel flag, while this flag looks like it has way more white than red. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShooterMcGavin Posted January 20, 2022 Share #6 Posted January 20, 2022 "H" (Hotel) Flown to signify the vessel is carrying a pilot for inbound/outbound harbor transit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
