army flag

A flag symbolizing an army or an established unit is a sign indicating which country the army or unit belongs to. In some countries, the military flag also includes the flag of the person in charge. A military flag generally consists of a flag width, a flagpole and a flag top. The specifications, materials, colors, patterns (characters) and production methods of the flag width are strictly stipulated by the armies of various countries. Flagpoles are generally made of metal with spiral patterns on the surface; The top of the flag, that is, the head of the flag, is mostly metal spears, crosses or other symbolic figures, such as eagles and lions, and some of the top of the flag is decorated with ears. The military flag is a symbol of unity, unified command and military honor. The military flag is usually officially approved and issued by the top leader of the country, the army or the highest military leadership.

The original military flag is actually a reflection of tribal people's totem worship in military application. The ancient Greek and Roman armies were the first troops in the West to use military flags. At first, the flag was relatively simple. Animals such as owls, sphinxes and wolves are painted on a square cloth to distinguish different military units. The ancient Greeks hung owls and sphinxes (winged monsters with lions or dogs and women's breasts in Greek mythology). At first, the Romans hung pictures of wolves, pigs and weapons. And since the Punic War, the eagle flag has been hung. Under the eagle, there are words indicating that it belongs to the army and the code names of various brigades and squadrons. In guslav, the military flag is called a standard, and a sokcho or horsehair (the so-called "flagpole") is hung on the top of a rotating pole.

China is recognized as one of the earliest countries with military flags in the world. Since the late primitive society, flags have been used as a symbol of gathering people. The military flags in ancient China often had totem worship. Flags of birds and falcons were painted during the war. "Release the soldiers by releasing their names" said: "If the bear tiger is the flag, the army will be built like a tiger." It refers to a military flag with a tiger pattern. When the general goes out, there is a flag behind him, which is the oldest name of the military flag. In some dynasties, military flags were also called "Fang Rong" and "Rong Feng". In Tang Yuan's poems, "the army suddenly changed for many years", and in Han Yu's poems, there are sentences such as "the house is in harmony, and the villagers respect the door first". The differences in flag color, flag width, flagpole length and decoration of ancient military flags show the status of commanders and reflect their cultural psychology. The military flag of each dynasty is marked with the abbreviation of that dynasty on the flag frame. If it is embroidered with "Tang" Yu, it is the army of the Tang Dynasty. In addition, commanders and generals often embroider their surnames on flags to distinguish them from other armies. For example, Guan Yu's army played the "Guan" flag and Yue Jiajun played the "Yue" flag. There are banners with titles, such as the "Zhuang" banner played by the rebels of Zhuang Wang Li Zicheng.

With the development of society and the need to command the army, the style of flags has been continuously improved and the types have been increasing. The "Qijiajun" led by Qi Jiguang, a military strategist in the Ming Dynasty, was equipped with the flags of the three armed forces, which were used by the commander in chief, as well as the identification flags to identify the generals. The Eight Banners Army of the Qing Emperor Nurhachi was named after the flag pattern, that is, the Eight Banners with dragons and dragons in yellow, red, white and blue. By the time of Emperor Taizong of the Qing Dynasty, the Eight Banners no longer painted dragons, but distinguished them by yellow, white, red and blue. 19 12 In June, the government of the Republic of China issued an order on the national flag and the flag of the army and navy, stipulating that 19' s stars and stripes were the army flag and the blue sky flag was the navy flag; Later, it was stipulated that the regiments of the army and the commanders and deputy commanders of the navy also had flags, and at the same time, various flag styles and use occasions of ships were also stipulated. The pattern of the Legion flag is the same as that of the military flag, with a black silk edge, a spear at the top of the flagpole, decorated with Zhu, and a group number written on the side of the flagpole.

The armies of all countries in the world have their own national flags, which are colorful and have different styles. In some countries, the flags of the armed forces are various, such as the flags of the armed forces, the flags of independent armies (soldiers), the flags of the army (corps) or the flags of wars, the flags of naval vessels and auxiliary vessels, and the flags of responsible persons. The US Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, Coast Guard and various services and arms all have their own military flags. The military flags of western European countries are mostly flags with silk tassels, and the top of the flagpole is hung with ribbons indicating the number of troops. For example, the flags of Britain, France, Italy and other countries are basically like this. In addition, the German flag also has a yellow shield with a black hawk pattern embroidered on its surface.
