Commander 1 (novel)

In the book, by Peter George, Commander 1, Dell, New York, 1965, page 246 there is a description of the flag of the fictional United States of the World.

Set in a near, post-apocalyptic world, the flag is described as;

"Outside the hut the new flag of the United States of the World flew at the head of the newly erected flag pole. The flag had at its top left quarter a replica of the old flag of the U.S.A., while on the rest was a white globe set against a deep blue background."

The author also wrote Red Alert, which was loosely the genesis for the movie Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (aka Dr. Strangelove).
