Mexican Navy ensigns in practice

I just returned from a week-long Caribbean cruise. I offer some of the meager flag spottings from the trip, among them Mexican Navy flags. At San Miguel, on the island of Cozumel, the M/S Carnival Miracle tied up directly across the pier from the destroyer ARM Comodoro Manuel Azueta (D111) of the Mexican Navy. While tied up, the Azueta flew the Mexican ensign at the gaff, the national command pennant (Gallardete Nacional de Mando), or commissioning pennant at the head of the mast, and the two-star pennant of a commander (capitán de fragata) in command at the inboard starboard signal halyard. No flag at the stern or jack at the bow. The stars on the commander's pennant, however, were not oriented with one point upward, as on Juan Manuel Gabino's "GIF", but with one point oriented horizontally toward the fly. Also, all three flags were lowered at sunset, contrary to the regulation quoted by Juan Manuel which requires the gallardete de mando to be flown 24 hours a day.

A naval station just south of the cruise ship pier flew the ensign at the gaff of its flagmast with the three star pennant of a captain (Capitán de navío) in command at the right hand crosstree (right side as one would face the water). I was not close enough to see the orientation of those stars. The pier in the center of the waterfront has at its shore end a flagpole that flew a very large Mexican national flag until sunset-- at least 6 or 7 meters hoist, I would guess. No other flag sightings there of any particular novelty--the Mexican ensign on all the local harbor boats, of course, as one would expect.
