The International Modern Pentathlon Union (French: Union Internationale de
Pentathlon Moderne), UIPM, is the international governing body of Modern
pentathlon. Its headquarters are in Monte-Carlo, Monaco. Modern Pentathlon was
introduced at the 5th Olympiad in Stockholm in 1912, comprising the contemporary
sports of pistol shooting, fencing, swimming, horse riding and running, which
embraced the spirit of its ancient counterpart. Modern Pentathlon was
administrated directly by the IOC until 1948, when the International Modern
Pentathlon Union (UIPM) was founded.

The protocol manual for the London 2012 Olympics
(Flags and Anthems Manual London 2012 [loc12])
provides recommendations for flag designs. Each
international federation and international
paralympics federation was sent an image of the flag, including the PMS
shades, for their approval by LOCOG. Once this was obtained, LOCOG produced a 60
x 90 cm version of the flag for further approval. So, while these specs may not
be the official version of each flag, they are certainly what the
international federation and
international paralympics federation believed the flag to be.

Last year Ian Sumner made some scans from the flag manual for the London
2012 Olympics (Flags and Anthems Manual London 2012) which provides
recommendations for flag designs of international sporting federations.
For International Modern Pentathlon Union - UIPM: PMS 288 blue, PMS 102 yellow.
