Chile has as naval jack a blue flag with a white star, 1:1.

Almost the same flag is described as Yacht flag, but in ratio 2:3. The question is — are this two one and the same, the image being somewhat distorted, or is there really a special flag for Chile to be used on private yachts?

At least during World War II the flag of a Vice admiral was diffented if he was commanding (this one) from if he wasn't (red instead of blue), ie. the same principle as with read admiral. (Source: Jane's Fighting Ships of World War II [jfs98]

The flag displayed as Commodore with Subordinate Command is identical to Rear Admiral with Subordinate Command, shouldn't it be a red version of Commodore with Command in Chief? (Source: Jane's Fighting Ships of World War II [jfs98]
