Ensign Flag

It was the craft carrying the 15 British sailors were taken by the Iranians to fly the UN flag?

We are told that the patrol had the right to be there at the UN mandate. Should have been champions of the United Nations, then? I didn't see one in the film that shows its seizure. I know you probably would not have made a difference, but in the land boundaries are easier to define and staff wear the armbands and blue berets their vehicles are painted white with the United Nations in large letters on the side. In the sea there is no visible boundaries and you have to rely on GPS navigation and other AIDS. Do you think the powers that should have ensured that the UN flag that flew with Ensign? We all know that the Iranians believe that the territory is their own. If our men must be sent on missions near Iranian territory, should not have had better protection?

Why not give battle, let me think … His ship did not have a clear shot of the Iranian craft, or been less weapons. Several small boats can make mincemeat of a large vessel great weapon of war, make no mistake. And blowing up his own party because no water would be very bad form. In addition, a boarding party is heavily armed so far in that small arms go, but they are only a handful of men without guns. They would be lucky to have a 7.62 or a .50 machine gun on his boat. Not enough to fight against various trades. And if he had done the race for it, would have been blown out of water. Their situation is one in which they could not defend themselve and hope survive. Soldiers die, that's a fact. But there is no point in a glorious last stand short and useless. Is expected to put our lives in the line of duty, but also our duty to live through the mission. A dead soldier is useless, one living, even in captivity, may have a use. The surrender was their only option. Regarding the use of flags of the United Nations, a UN-approved mission, does not mean an operation of the Blue Beret. And a flag UN will not protect anyone. Remember the Israeli campaign against Lebanon last summer? The Israelis bombed an outpost of the United Nations who had been there for months, ignoring calls artifacts was landing too close, and that leads to the death of several UN observers, including one of my fellow Canadians? or in Rwanda, when the Belgians were massacred? Their blue helmets and armbands did wonders for them, not you? or Bosnia, where the Canadian troops of the United Nations were taken hostage for several weeks and used as human shields against air attacks? Yes, the crest of the UN is like force field that deflects the Star Trek hostile enemy activity. So effective that it is a bullet magnet. And this is not the first time the Iranians get that type of garbage.

Chapters: Union Flag, British Ensign, Flag of the United Kingdom, Red Ensign, White Ensign, Blue Ensign, Royal Air Force Ensign, Flag of the British Antarctic Territory, British Civil Air Ensign. Excerpt: The Blue Ensign is a flag , one of several British ensigns , used by certain organisations or territories associated with the United Kingdom . It is used either plain, or defaced with a badge or other emblem .The evolution of the Blue Ensign followed that of the Union Flag . The ensign originated in the 1600s with the St. George's cross (see Flag of England ) in the canton , and with a blue field background (top right).The Act of Union 1707 united Scotland, England and Wales in the Kingdom of Great Britain and produced a new blue ensign which placed the Union Flag in the canton. With the Act of Union 1800 , Ireland joined the United Kingdom and the St Patrick's Cross was added to the Union Flag of the United Kingdom and, accordingly, to the cantons of the British ensigns from 1 January 1801.Plain blue ensign Prior to the reorganisation of the Royal Navy in 1864, the plain blue ensign had been the ensign of one of three squadrons of the Royal Navy, the Blue Squadron. This changed in 1864, when an order in council provided that the Red Ensign was allocated to merchantmen, the Blue Ensign was to be flag of ships in public service or commanded by an officer in the Royal Naval Reserve , and the White Ensign was allocated to the Navy.Thus, after 1864, the plain blue ensign is permitted to be worn, instead of the Red Ensign , by two categories of civilian vessel:-Defaced blue ensign Since 1864, the Blue Ensign is defaced with a badge or emblem, to form the ensign of United Kingdom government departments or public bodies, for example:-: end{sloppypar begin{sloppypar Ensign of the Royal Fleet ...@PzáG®ÿ¾Úð

The flag's original design was chosen in 1901 from entries in a worldwide competition held following Federation. It was first flown in Melbourne on 3 September 1901. A slightly different design was approved by King Edward VII in 1902. Over the next few years, the exact specifications of the flag were changed several times both intentionally and as a result of confusion. The current specifications were formally gazetted in 1934, and in 1954 the flag became recognised by parliamentary statute as the Australian National Flag...@ýp£×ÿ¾Úð

British Ensign : 6130249675 $116.33 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! A British ensign in British maritime law and custom, is the identifying flag flown to designate a British ship, either military or civilian. Such flags display the United Kingdom Union Flag in the canton (the upper corner next the staff), with either a red, white or blue field, dependant on whether the vessel is civilian, naval, or in a special category. These are known as the red, white, and blue ensigns respectively. Outside the nautical sphere, ensigns are used to designate many other military units, government departments and administrative divisions. These flags are modelled on the red, white, and blue naval ensigns, but may use different colours for the field, and be defaced by the addition of a badge or symbol, for example the sky blue with concentric red, white and blue circles of the Royal Air Force ensign. Today's white ensign, as used by Royal Navy ships, incorporates the St George's Cross (St George's Ensign). Defaced white ensigns include that of the British Antarctic Territory and that formerly used by the Royal Yacht Club (now the Royal Yacht Squadron).
