To put a little light into the Cabinda flag question here the sources
from Flag Bulletin:
Cabinda. Flag Bulletin XVI:5,
September-October 1977
Flag description:
."..of three horizontal stripes of light blue over yellow over red,
again with a central emblem. The new emblem consisted of a yellow disc,
bordered in dark brown and slightly overlapping the top and bottom stripes.
Inscribed within was a triangle of light green, apex downwards, surmounted
by a white five pointed star. The diameter of the star corresponded to
the yellow disc, while the green triangle slightly overlapped the brown
border at the three points."
Sources given by Flag Bulletin is a publication named "Le drapeau
du Cabinda (n.p.: 1974)", and especially for the flag a "letter
from the Embassy of the USA in Kinshasa, dated 16 January 1976, courtesy
of Creighton Kern".
