Naval ensign

by Zeljko Heimer

White flag with a blue rising diagonal stripe, a golden sun emblem in upper hoist and a black anchor in lower fly.
This ensign was recently adopted (1997?). I would guess that after the independence the Soviet naval ensign was retained at least for some time, and probably the national flag was used as the ensign for some period too.The blue diagonal is a clear reminiscence of the blue used in Soviet naval ensigns.

Commander-in-chief of the Navy

by Zeljko Heimer

Similar to the naval ensign, but the lower-fly triangle is divided horizontally in black over white over dark red.
