rectangle placed in a blue field was reported in the 50's. The
standard might have been used on the president's yacht
Sans-Soucis.

A presidential flag was adopted under Paul Magloire (1951-56),
but later disappeared.

From a paper published in Franciae Vexilla (#22/98, June 2001)
- The standard of President Magloire (December 1950 - 22 October
1956) have an orange fringe. The standard is similar in design to
the putative army rank flags, a red
field with two stars standing for Malgoire's rank.
