SAVA Journal 5/96 (31 December 1996) [aLL96] illustrates and discusses
the flag of the Rhodesia Prison Service on page 137. It was a light green
flag, proportions 2:1 with the badge of the Prison Service in the centre.
The badge consists of a yellow lion with red tongue and white claws, standing
on a white bar. The background color of the circle in which the lion stands
is also light green. Above the circle is a yellow Zimbabwe Bird
as crest,
outlined in dark brown. At the base of the circle are red and yellow flames.
The circle is surrounded by the words "Rhodesia Prison Service" in white,
with a white border, the lines of the circle in black. Through the centre
of the badge [vertically] is a sword in a sheath inlaid in silver and gold
with a black point. The guard and pommel of the sword are gold and the
hilt black and white.

A new badge and flag for the Zimbabwe Prison Service were adopted in
1980, but I do not have information on their designs.

The flag of the Zimbabwe Prison Service follows the same pattern as its
Rhodesian predecessor -
green field with the new prison service badge in yellow in the centre in proportion
1:2.
