The Minister of Defence
This flag was formerly that of the Minister of the Navy. The emblem remains the same: Crowned anchor with a bar and rope/chain.
The state flag with white panel with crowned anchor. Here the emblem is shown
all golden although
Album des Pavillons shows it blue + golden.
Some details of the rope and the crown are slightly different, too.

Flagbog labels this flag "Fosvarsministeriet" (the Ministry of Defence),
assigning it to the whole organisation, rather than just the one man. It agrees
with our image where the smaller size of the panel is concerned, but has a crown
lined only half way up and (like all Danish crowns) with a cross at the top, and
it has a blue anchor with a fatter, and white, cross bar, and a red rope coiling
quite differently, though still giving the same impression.

The state flag with two white staffs in saltire in the
first quarter. Whether these staffs are sceptres or marshal batons, I can't say,
but in
Album des Pavillons (2000) they are
considerably different from what is shown here (much thinner).

Roundel of red and white, red outside double the diameter of the white disk.
A note to the figure in
Album des Pavillons (2000) explains that
the national flag is painted on the fin of the Navy Aircraft.
