According to an official Georgian document:
The Main Military flag stands for a rectangular red (purple) tissue with 2/3 proportion. On the central part of the flag there is a white (silver) cross with 1/5 size of the height of the flag. In the corners there are four white (silver) crosses with the width of 1/5 of the Flag. On the corners there are four red (purple) Bolnisian type crosses. The height of the cross is 1/5 of the height of the Flag.
The battle flag is the reverse of the national flag with the symbol of the Ministry of Defense in the centre, surmounted by a crown. The arms show a crossed sling and sword. The sling emblem was used by Georgian Kings (Bagrationi dynasty). They believed that the Bagrationis are descendants of David (as in Goliath).
