Excerpt from Flags of the World: Past and Present; Their Story and Associations
Every one should know the history and meaning of the Royal Standard and the Union, the difference between personal flags and national flags and between an ensign and a jack, and also the glorious record of the honours on our regimental colours and the badges of Greater Britain met with afloat and ashore all round the world, and surely something is desirable regarding the flags of foreign nations beyond a hazy acquaintance with a few of them and the limited knowledge of flag eti quatte that leads to so many unintentional breaches of courtesy.
