Admiral

Album 2000 [pay00] shows a blue flag with white Greek cross and four white stars, one in each corner of the flag.

According to Gresham Carr's Flags of the World, 1956 [car56], these flags are dark blue and have proportions 5:9. In [kan56] the cross is half the height of the flag.

The 1917 National Geographic Magazine article [gmc17] shows a different design, based on the state flag. Do we have any idea when these flags were adopted and when were replaced with current set (and if there was something in between)?

Flag of admiral: This is one of the five Dominican Republic naval flags in Flaggenbuch (1939-1941) [neu39]. (The others are war ensign and jack; civil ensign; flag of the Generalissime; and flag of rear-admiral, head of a flotilla).

Album 2000 [pay00] shows a blue triangular pennant with white Greek cross — similar to Chief of General Staff but without the initials. Ratio is not indicated, but seems equal to it, 1:2.

The 1917 National Geographic Magazine article [gmc17] shows a Commanding Officer pennant, based on the contemporary admiral flag. Do we have any idea when this flags was adopted and when was this rank cancelled?
