The SecretarÃa de la Defensa Nacional was one of the first departments formed when Mexico achieved independence in 1821 under the name of Ministerio de Guerra y Marina. In times of the Republic its name was changed to Secretaría de Guerra y Marina, to became as in present just until 1937.

The current flag of the SecretarÃa de la Defensa Nacional is a white cloth charged with the President Fox's administration's emblem, populary known as the Ãguila Mocha.

The official emblem of the SecretarÃa de la Defensa Nacional (SDN) used until December 2000, was based on the National Tricolor, where the Coat of Arms has been replaced by a golden ring charged with a green gold-outlined map of Mexico.
Four golden five-pointed stars, aligned vertically over the green field, represent the high command, that is the Secretary of the National Defense; finally, the initials "SDN" in capital golden letters, aligned also vertically over the red field.
During some events, specially the Army's day and Independence day, white cloths and guidons charged with this emblem were displayed.

A square Mexican flag, is that seen often?
by Zach Harden, March 03, 2003.

Actually, yes, it is.
This flag is an example of a cavalry flag to be used in the Army and, of course, by Mexican President. The correct name in Spanish (of Mexico) is estandarte de caballerÃa -cavalry standard-. Many of Mexico "Charros" organizations adopted the military cavalry standards to indentify themselves but with their corporative names in golden letters bellow the coat of arms and the text "Estados Unidos Mexicanos" in capital golden letters in semicircle above.
