- Rank Flags of the Chilean Navy:
See also:
Also, as in other Chilean flags with stars, there does not seem to be any detailed prescription regarding the sizes and the exact poitions of the stars, so I have followed the drawings in Album 2000 [pay00] (that, as a rule, follows the Flaggenbuch 1939 [neu39]). I believe that the eventual error introduced so could not be that great.

Blue flag with three white five-pointed stars, one in the midle of the top half and one in each lower corner.
Željko Heimer, 14 December 2005
The Album 2000 [pay00] shows a 2:3 blue flag with three white stars in triangle. Already shown in Flaggenbuch [neu39]. A note in Album says the flag is also used by the Chief of Joint Staff or Navy Staff.

At least during World War II, the flag of a vice admiral was different if he was commanding than if he wasn't (red instead of blue), ie. the same principle as with rear admiral. (Source: Jane's Fighting Ships of World War II [jfs98])
Marcus Wendel, 5 September 1999
This confirmed neither by Flaggenbuch [neu39] nor by Album [pay00]. We can guess it was only used during the Second World War.

image by Željko Heimer, 14 December 2005
The Album 2000 [pay00] shows a 2:3 blue flag with two white stars placed vertically in the middle of the flag. Already shown in Flaggenbuch [neu39], with the same allocation, and also "als Chef des Stabes in Ministerium" (as Chief of Staff in Ministry). If the Ministry of Navy was suppressed, that allocation automatically disappeared, too.
