The former Army Ensign was a national flag with a centred, smaller coat-of-arms and in a semicircle below it (still on the yellow stripe) the words 'COMPAÑIAS DE MAR' – literally Sea Companies, ie. naval units – in blue.

Santiago Dotor, 13 Dec 1999

Album des Pavillons 1990 still showed this ensign, mistakenly.
