In Pederson (1971) book figure 399 shows a Jack
of Pakistan. Notes say "adopted in 1956". Any abolition date?

http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/world/pakistan/navy-intro.htm is the
statement that in 1956 the "PN jack and Pakistan flag replaced the Queen's
colour and the white ensign respectively." This indicates that the flag provided
by Martin, for a while at least, served as the Pakistan Navy's ceremonial color.

I believe that the Jack was adopted in 1956 (green with two anchors) and then
moved to blue with white navy badge on 1960.
