From www.ejercito.mil.ec:
"BANDERA - No se sabe a ciencia cierta cual fue el origen de
la bandera de la Fuerza Terrestre, por eso su historia se remite
a un documento que data del año de 1812 y que se refiere a un
informe de las armas y peltrechos que tomó el ejército realista
de las tropas patriotas luego de derrotarlas en San Antonio de
Ibarra.
Textualmente, el documento dice así: "Una bandera de
tafetán encarnado, con aspa blanca"; de acuerdo a la
definición del diccionario idiomático, encarnado significa
color rojo.
Desde entonces el ejército adoptó esta bandera como suya y fue
oficializada en 1954 junto al escudo e himno y se ha mantenido
hasta la fecha."
[FLAG - It is not known for certain what the origin of the flag of the Land Force was, that is why its history refers to a document dating from the year 1812 and which refers to a report of the weapons and equipment that the realistic army of patriot troops after defeating them in San Antonio de Ibarra.
Textually, the document reads as follows: "A flag of red taffeta, with a white cross"; According to the definition of the idiomatic dictionary, incarnate means red.
Since then the army adopted this flag as its own and it was made official in 1954 along with the shield and anthem and has remained to this day.]
