I was wandering, the rank of Captain ("Captain of
(Battle) Ship", if you want) holds four star, while the
imidiate lower rank of Frigate Captain (i.e. Commander) has two
only and LtCdr, i.e. Corvette Captan has only one. What happened
whith three stars rank?
Also, where are commodores and rear admirals?

Flagmaster publiished this flags in issue 98, summer 2000 and
captain has only three stars. Four stars must be a mistake. One
star is for lieutenant commander. Four stars shown in senior
lieutenant pennant, 3 for lieutenant, 2 for sub-lieutenant and 1
for ensign .

According to Album 2000 [pay00]
- Admiral (2:3) - Swallow-tailed, white stripe along hoist with
golden anchor and blue fly with three golden five-pointed stars
arranged in a collumn. Nither the position of the anchor, nor
that of the stars does apear to be in the middle of the fields
horizontally. Ain't that odd?
The cable of the anchor in Album is shown
"transparent", in this and subsequent four flags. I
assumed that this is an error and I showed it with appropriate
colour of the anchor.

Jaume Ollé, 22 October 2001
Jaume (& Flagmaster using a document which I sent to
them) is right, four stars for a captain is a mistake.

Here, the word 'ensign' doesn't mean a flag, but a naval rank,
equivalent to a second-lieutenant in the army.
