Flag of the Malawi Naval Unit


[Flag of the Naval Unit]by Željko Heimer, 27 May 2002, according to Album 2000.

Regarding Malawi, it would not be correct to say that Malawi has a Naval ensign since it is a landlocked country, but it does have a "Naval Unit" which operates on Lake Nyasa/Malawi (one of the largest lakes in Africa).
The flag of the Naval Unit is based on a naval ensign pattern and has a white field with a red cross (as in the British White Ensign) with the Malawi national flag in the canton. In the fourth quarter is a yellow anchor, above which is a red lion. Under the anchor are the words "Malawi Naval Unit" in black.
I have one of these flags in my collection made by a manufacturer in Harare.
