Summary edit

Description
English: Dutch naval flag. See 993303. Flag practice, on naval vessels, varies from navy to navy. Many navies use the national flag. The Royal Navy flies the white ensign at the stern and the Union flag from the jack. The Dutch navy flies the national flag at the stern and the ensign from the jack whence it is known as the "jack". The national flag was used until 1931 when replaced by the present jack (thought to have been flown as early as the Dutch/Spanish war in the 16th century).
