I picked up a really cool Naval Guards Ensign. Now how many ships were designated as "Guards Ships"?
Lets see what you all have! Paul Last edited by CtahhR; 08-09-2012 at 03:38 AM. |

Re: Naval Guards Flags and Units
I do not know much about these kinds of flags, but I have one that is identical save the "glory" ribbon at the base. I never really knew what it was for and if the ribbon is a requirement (as I suspect it must be), then there is no point in posting it here.;)

Re: Naval Guards Flags and Units
Hi! What part of Louisiana are you from? I grew up in Crowely/Lafeyette area.
Anyway, the St George ribbon at the base of the flag designates the unit as a "Guards" unit. Same as the Guards badge on a uniform designates the wearer of a Guards unit. What ships were designated as Guards units? |

As for anymore info about the naval flag world, I must defer to people like Doug and the other "cloth" guys. Phillip

I need to find one of those naval ORB flags then. Were there naval flags with any other awards? |
