Description of the flag

The burgee of the U.S. "Naval Education and Training Command" has either a blue or an orange field, with the slogan: "Training Excellence Award" superimposed in the middle of the unit's logo; located at "Naval Air Station Pensacola" Florida; c. 2017.

What is the difference in meaning between the flag with a blue field and the flag with an orange field?
Peter Hans van den Muijzenberg, 27 July 2023

I telephoned the U.S. "Naval Education and Training Command" (NETC) in Florida. The P.R. rep said that the NETC's "Training Excellence Award" blue-burgee is awarded annually to some "overall" unit excelling in training, whereas the NETC's "Retention Excellence Award " yellow(orangish)-burgee is awarded to a unit with the best re-enlistment or retention score. The rep also mentioned that the awarding of these burgees lapsed during the 2021-22 COIVD era, and the resumption of their being awarded again is currently being contemplated.
