Same but without any white disc.

Ivan Sache, 12 August 1999
From Album 2000 [pay00] -
Captain Commanding a Force (2:3) - Same as for admiral but
without white disks - so, only blue flag with white cross. I
guess that this is used for all the commanders (commanding a
Force) with rank lower then rear-admiral.

From Album 2000 [pay00] -
Chief of Naval Operations (2:3) - Triangular blue pennant with
two white disk near hoist one above the other. This pennant is
not mentioned in previous album issues - maybe this position is
new?

Ivan Sache, 12 August 1999
From Album 2000 [pay00] -
Senior Officer Afloat (2:3) - Blue split-tail flag with white
cross. The center of the cross is here offset to hist which is
more natural then the previously published figure with the cross
centered in the middle of the rectangle. This previous image is,
maybe, errornous representation. However, the eveidence from the
inverted-colours flag
from Flaggenbuch - Senior Commander - Former
Rank Flag, might indicate otherwise.

National flag with a white border.
Source: Album des Pavillons (1995) [pay].
Ivan Sache, 12 August 1999
From Album 2000 [pay00] - Port
Captain (2:3) - National flag with white border. I guess, that a
flag of this design was originally used as pilot flag, as it was
cutom of the time, but when it lost its function it was
"taken" by the port authorities. But, this is rather a
speculation - I wander if some older sources have this flag as
pilot signal?
The width of the white border seems to be 1/5 of the hoist size,
but if that is regulated or not, I couldn't say.
Željko Heimer, 23 May 2001
Unfortunately for this theory, Flaggenbuch (1939) already
showed the flag as Port Captain's flag. The figures on
Flaggenbuch image say, based on a 200:300 flag:
- width of the vertical white borders: 48 each
- height of the horizontal white borders: 52 for upper border, 48
for lower border.
Therefore, the national flag inside the white border is not
exactly centered and should be 100:204 (figures not mentioned on
the image). Its stripes are 52:24:24, from top to bottom.
