Marine Craft Signalling Flag

London, Hangar One Aircraft & Exhibits

RAF Marine Craft had to be able to communicate with other ships so a full range of signal flags were carried. Each flag represents a letter or number but can also be used singly to convey a specific message.

This flag represents the letter Z but used singly it requests the use of a tug boat.
