Coast Guard Ensign. ---/-S- (1:2) - The white ensign, with red
cross and the national flag in canton. The width of the cross is
(as indicated in Album 2000 [pay00])
1/8 of the hoist, and the flag in canton is, of course - deformed
from 2:3 of the national flag to fit the entire canton. What is
then done with the trident, I guess is not entirely defined (or
is it?).[smi80] does not mention
this flag, so it may be latter then 1980.

In 1976 Barbados issued a series of stamps commemorating the
tenth anniversary of the country's independence. One of these
stamps, SG 569, featured the Barbados Coast Guard Patrol Boat
'Commander Marshall' with an unnamed similar vessel in the
background. I have several questions regarding this stamp, these
vessels, and their service:
a. First of all, are the Barbados Coast Guard and the Barbados
Navy one and the same, or are they separate services as in many
other countries? Furthermore, was this the case in 1976, when
this stamp was issued?
b. If the Coast Guard was simply the local name for the Barbadian
naval service at the time, why are neither the 'Commander
Marshall' nor the other vessel flying the Bajan White Ensign as
it appears above? They both appear to be flying the national flag
at the stern and at the masthead, in the form of a civil ensign.
Furthermore, both vessels seem to have what appears to be a
small, square version of the Bajan trident flag at their bows,
obviously being used as a jack. I have not found this usage on
our site. Also, if it is in fact a jack, why are both vessels
flying jacks when they were depicted as being under way? Surely
the jack is only to be flown when the vessel as anchored or tied
to a dock ?
