"Mike Keown" wrote in message ... Heard a curious conversation on a late night talk show. One of the speakers said: " If you ever see a warship flying its national ensign (flag) upside down it means that the crew has mutinied and taken over the vessel..." Is that true? If so, is it a international sign known to all sailors and what mutiny originated it? An upside down flag is a distress signal. |
