Minister of the navy. This flag is very similar in Montells,
but anchor (and trident) is black.
Jaume Olle, 31 August 2001
This flag wrongly appears at http://www.uarmy.com.ua/ALMANAH/ALMANAH03/article12/art12.html
as "Navy Ensign of Ukraine, adopted 18, July, 1918".
The flag which is wrongly described there as "Flag of Navy
Minister, 1918". is really the Naval
ensign of July 1917 .

Commander in chief of the flee (Lcuien Philippe say
"seulement en temps de guerre" this is only in war
times). Montells give a slighty different design and captione it
as "command of the fleet" (suppossly in peace times or
perhaps Philippe should refer to the war fleet and Montells to
the fleet?). Flag at war has St George with dragon and flag at
peace has St Michel.

This flag with some changes
appears at http://www.uarmy.com.ua/ALMANAH/ALMANAH03/article12/art12.html
as Flag of Commander-in-Chief of the Navy. Flag of
Commander-in-Chief of the Navy with Kiev CoA in the centre is
doubtful. I know only about flag with two crossed anchors in 3rd
quarter. But may be variant with Kiev arms existed too...

I have recently received a copy of Franciae Vexilla, no. 32/78
Décembre 2003. In the article "Les Drapeaux Historiques
d'Ukraine (2ème partie)" a flag for the Chief of the Air
Force of the Navy is mentioned. It is similar to the flag of the
Air Force (which is in turn modelled on the RAF ensign. See Ukraine - Historical Air Force Flags (1918)
), except that the blue- yellow-white roundel is charged with a
red anchor. It is reported as adopted in the summer of 1918.
However, to my knowledge, there is no evidence of an Air Force of
the Navy and the usage of such a roundel. Does somebody have
better information and reliable sources to address to?
Pier Paolo Lugli, 22 December 2003
The origin of this flag, reported firstly by Lucien Philippe,
are some Ukrainian vexillologist. Philippe send me the images from
his personal files. If I'm not wrong, it was based in the
regulations of that era, but I don't know if there was a drawing
accompaning the text.
